Description

Complete and Utter Nonsense by Lewis Carroll

Although best known for the ‘Alice’ Books, this Oxford mathematician was also a genius of nonsense verse. In ‘Phantasmagoria’, a man learns the secrets of supernatural bureaucracy. In ‘Hiawatha’s Photographing’, a delicious spoof of Longfellow’s poem, the Indian chief lines his family up for a picture. ‘The Hunting of the Snark’ is one of Carroll’s greatest achievements – a magically silly tale of adventure and terror. Carroll’s nonsense is ingeniously funny, and includes mock epics, limericks, riddles and wordplay.
