Hunting of the Snark

By: Lewis Carroll

Listen for free

Dive into The Hunting of the Snark - An Agony in 8 Fits, a whimsical nonsense poem crafted by the ingenious Lewis Carroll, whose real name was Charles Lutwidge Dodgson. Composed between 1874 and 1876, this enchanting piece draws inspiration from his earlier work, Jabberwocky, featured in the beloved childrens classic, Through the Looking Glass. While Carroll often claimed that the poems meaning eluded him, he once hinted at its interpretation as a quest for happiness. Scholars have unearthed various themes within its lines, including existential angst, allegories of tuberculosis, and even a satire of the Tichborne case. Ultimately, I simply find it a delightful read. (Phil Chenevert)Copyright Comedy and Fairy Tales
