Poetry Carroll, Lewis: Phantasmagoria and Other Poems, v1, 13 March 2008.

[Dr. Drib]

Some minor poetry by Lewis Carroll.

Here are some opinions on the net:

“The poem itself is a conversation between a man of 42 and a less than adept ghost. Among the things learned are the 5 rules of behavior for a ghost, the housing requirements for a ghost etc. Carroll's vintage humor is expressed in a narrative poem of seven cantos using verses of five rhymed lines. The poetry is well written - the rhymes are not forced but natural, the humor relatively subtle.”

And another:

“This poem, writen in five line verses, ranks right up there with Alice in Wonderland. The poetry of Homer with the wit of Dr. Suess. I would suggest this book to anyone who likes poetry in any form.”

I hope you enjoy it.
