Probably you have never wondered what would have happened if Alice had not fallen down a rabbit hole, encountered a Cheshire Cat or played chess with the Queen, but instead stepped into a narrow valley where Oklahoma Indians were racing cars long before White Men ever landed in the New World. R.A. Lafferty poses such visions, spanning an uncategorizeable mix of literary God knows what. Lafferty and Lewis Carrol would have gotten along famously, one an electrical engineer turned speculative fiction writer and the other a mathematician turned "children's" writer (though writing an international classic hardly qualifies as child's play). I hope Lafferty's works last as long as Carrol's.
