  • Sun-hee’s Adventures Under the Land of Morning Calm
    Byron W Sewell / Victoria J Sewell
    While on a business assignment in the Republic of Korea in 1985–86 Byron and Victoria Sewell immersed themselves in Korean culture and eventually loosely adapted and beautifully illustrated Lewis Carroll’s classic Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland into a uniquely bilingual English-Korean version of Lewis Carroll’s famous tale. The first edition has been long out of print and is ...

  • The Annotated Alice in Nurseryland
    Byron W Sewell
    Need a good laugh? This obscure work by Carrollian author and illustrator Byron W. Sewell is an out­rageous comic parody of one of Lewis Carroll’s stranger and lesser-known works, The Nursery 'Alice'. It purports to be the recently discovered (in Dead Deer, Alberta, Canada) precursor of the actual work that was written by Carroll to be read by children 'nought to five years old...

  • Close Encounters of the Snarkian Kind
    Byron W Sewell
    Your ticket on this Snark hunting expedition through the snarkish imagination of Byron Sewell is good for several stops on planet Earth and far-off Jupiter!

From there our next t...

  • In the Boojum Forest
    Byron W. Sewell
    In this snark-skin portmanteau are four stories about various species of Boojum that have haunted Byron Sewell’s obsessively snarkian imagination.

  • The Aventures of Alys in Wondyr Lond
    Byron W. Sewell / Byron WSewell / Lewis Carroll / Brian S. Lee / Brian SLee
    Middle English is the name commonly given to the forms of English current from about 1100 to roughly 1500, between pre-Conquest Old English, which is hardly intelligible today without special study, and the early modern English of Shakespeare and his contemporaries. Of course it changed considerably during that period, and different dialects existed in various geographical area...

  • Alice’s Bad Hair Day in Wonderland
    Byron W. Sewell
    In this retelling of Lewis Carroll’s classic tale, Alice’s fall down the rabbit hole turns into a terrifying descent through the centre of the earth, accelerating her to terminal velocity, hopelessly snarling her long hair into a tangled mess, and nearly setting it alight. Things go from bad to worse as she sets out through Wonderland’s familiar, yet strangely-altered places, w...

  • Alice’s Adventures in an Appalachian Wonderland
    Lewis Carroll / Byron W. Sewell / Victoria J. Sewell
    Lewis Carroll’s classic 'Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland' has been translated into over a hundred languages, from French to Japanese to Esperanto. In this translation into the rich dialect of the Appalachian Mountains, the translators have treated the story as a folktale, in order to create the sense that the reader is listening as an adult tells the story to a child. The stor...

  • Snarkmaster
    Byron W. Sewell
    Although the author (with many previous unique Snarkian works under his belt) describes 'Snarkmaster' as the final work in a trilogy, it stands alone quite distinctly as a unique, gripping tale of a power struggle between good and evil, concluding with the development of an unusual intermediate state. Most of the story takes place prior to the traditional Snark voyage (describe...

  • The Haunting of the Snarkasbord
    Alison Tannenbaum / Byron W. Sewell / Charlie Lovett
    'The Haunting of the Snarkasbord' is a dark, humorous parody of Lewis Carroll’s 'The Hunting of the Snark' concerning what followed the Baker’s vanishing and the Crew’s continued hunt for a snark on Snark Island.

  • The Carrollian Tales of Inspector Spectre
    August A. Imholtz / Byron W. Sewell
    In the first of these two crime fiction tales, R.I.P. (Restless in Pieces), modern grave-­robbers steal the bones of Charles Dodgson (also known as Lewis Carroll), expecting to hold them for ransom.

  • Alix’s Adventures in Wonderland
    Byron W. Sewell
    Charles Dodgson had had a difficult day photographing young Victor Alexander Parnell, one of Queen Victoria’s godsons. Dodgson wasn’t at all certain of how either the boy’s parents or the Queen would regard the photograph if he let them see it. The image showed a boy with the cold and calculating gaze of a gunman that one might encounter in a saloon in the American West. It had...

  • Áloþk’s Adventures in Goatland
    Byron W. Sewell
    Róaž Wiðz (1882-1937), the locally-admired though otherwise little-known Zumorgian translator, spent seventeen years of his miserable life (when he wasn’t tending to his beloved goats) translating Lewis Carroll’s classic 'Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland' into Zumorigénflit and transposing it into Ŋúǧian culture. Sadly, Ŋúǧ was swallowed up by the Soviet Union in 1947. Most of ...
