Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Phantasmagoria and Other Poems is a splendid collection of poems written by Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, pen named Lewis Carroll. It was Carroll's longest poem published in 1869, divided into seven Cantons, illustrated by A. B. Frost. Carroll has written a supernatural amazing poem, in his narrative he shows interaction between Phantom ( a ghost) and a man Tibbets. Author expresses that on a winter night while he returned home he felt surprising presence of someone else that was a white, wavy gloomy appearance of a ghost. Carroll says ghosts are not unlike humans. Like humans they follow hierarchy, do jobs to haunt. They live in society and follow the social rules, violation means sufferings. As men fear to dark they also fear. They live in gloomy and dark environment and they fear from light. In the end, ghost realized he came in wrong house, so he left in a friendly way shaking hands. Some other pleasing and appreciating poems are-The Sea Dirge, A Game of Fives, Poeta Fit, Non Nascitur, Fame's Funny Trumpet, Hiawatha's Photographing, A Valentine, Hunting of the Snark etc.

OF UNIQUE ASSOCIATION INTEREST BEING GIVEN BY C. L. DODGSON TO R. DUCKWORTH, HIS FRIEND AND COMPANION ON THE MEMORABLE BOATING TRIP WHICH GAVE US "ALICE IN WONDERLAND" This copy originally sold at Anderson Galleries in NY in 1926 as part of the collection of Harry Glemby. Duckworth was the person rowing the boat on the original boating expedition of 4 July 1862 during which Alice's Adventures were first told by Lewis Carroll. He is represented by the Duck in the book, a play on his last name. A more interesting presentation/association copy of this title can not be imagined. ?To appreciate the interest fully one must refer to the Lewis Carroll Picture Book, edited by S. Dodgson Collingwood, London, 1899, pages 358-60, where Canon Duckworth relates the whole origin of the story of Alice and the river expedition which gave rise to it.
