'Serenity'
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."
In fact, I'm pretty sure that's exactly how the story came about, with him making up a story off the top of his head to tell Alice Liddell.
Ha! That makes a lot of sense, because that's totally how it reads.
And I think it's also classed as literary nonsense
That's a good class to put it in.
LKH writes boring sex 90% orgies with only one female involved. I find it hugely funny that men can have sex with other men, but women are only having sex with men in ANY of LKH's universe.
After you read Alice - pick up a copy of The looking Glass wars
I'm only part way thru it - but it is an interesting spin on Alice.
Do the men have sex with each other in the Anita books? I don't remember that, I remember it being all about Anita and the hetero sex only.

I talked to the author of that at Wondercon!
After I read Alice, I'm actually reading Through the Looking Glass.
Alice and Through the looking glass are one to me. Even though the second was written under heavy influence . ( I thought that as an innocent child)
I'm reading Alice's Adventures in Wonderland for the first time. I swear, it's like he just made shit up as he went along.
He totally does. When I was reading the British cult kids book Uncle I noticed the same thing. "He's just making shit up!" Then realized that this is a bit part of the bagginess of Narnia (here's a faun, here's a giant sized swashbuckling rat...), and also a part of the Harry Potter books.
I've concluded that "Just Making Shit Up" is an actual British fantasy tradition.
I wrote a paper in Victorian Lit on "Alice's Search for Identity." The paper was mostly bullshit, but it got an A+ from the prof, so I'm not complaining.
(this is before she gest the sex powers)
This may be my favorite typo ever.

I'm going to assume this isn't the LeCarre novel.
Here's a link to my Buffyverse/Anita Blake crossover.
I couldn't help myself . . .
