Takeaway
Imagination is delightful, but even the silliest quest can carry a warning about taking care with what you seek.
Carroll, Lewis
The Hunting of the Snark: an Agony in Eight Fits
A Bellman leads a mismatched crew—including a Baker, Beaver, Butcher, Banker, Barrister, and others—on a quest to hunt the elusive Snark. Along the way, the poem offers mock-serious advice, strange natural history, courtroom absurdity, and escalating nonsense, ending with the Baker’s mysterious disappearance when the Snark proves to be a Boojum.
