Retracing the steps of a surprising array of twentieth-century writers who ventured into the fantastical, topsy-turvy world of Lewis Carroll's fictions and discovered there the quintessence of their own modernity, this book demonstrates that Carroll's influence extended far beyond literary style, pervading all aspects of modern life from commercial culture to politics, from philosophy to the new physics. Recovering a common touchstone between the likes of T. S. Eliot, James Joyce, and Virginia Woolf and writers conventionally regarded on the periphery of modernist studies, such as Sylvia Plath, Jorge Luis Borges, and Vladimir Nabokov, this volume ultimately provides a new entry-point into a more broadly conceptualised global modernism--
