In Victorian England non-realistic fiction was largely forced underground, with Alice, into such marginal fiction as fantasy for children. Only now is fantasy beginning to receive the attention it deserves, in both fiction and literary criticism. Beverly Lyon Clark's Reflections of Fantasy extends recent theoretical work on fantasy by exploring the technique of the mirror-world. Tracing the fantasy mirror-world in Carroll, Nabokov, and Pynchon allows Clark to shed light on the dialectic central to fantasy, that between the real and the not-real, and also on Victorian and contemporary views of fictional reality, on the use of metaphoric and metonymic modes, on the ramifications of self-consciousness. She explores these themes in analyses of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Through the Looking-Glass, Anya v stranye chudes, Pale Fire, Ada, and The Crying of Lot 49.

Reflections of fantasy
This was not an impulse purchase. I can't remember when i became obsessed with the lions behaviours.
I realised that they are more than just a treat to my eyes.Not a MAJESTIC LION but ya THE majestic lion with its life to live and survive.Its really fascinating to read about different aspects of a lion's life.Its behaviour,its needs.Do they have any wants? or it is just its version of primal and bare needs.The book spoke a depth about its behaviour patterns. Interesting lives.Interesting facts.
This book was an early work. Time spent on the field search had proved its worthiness. Detailed analysis were done to get to the bottom. I can't imagine the patience shown by the research people. Its marvelling.It would be like an adventure with passion for them,to show this much of patience.
I feel sympathy for the lions now.With them being too vulnerable.There is more to preserve.Especially against some human's inhumane actions.
I have seen many people taking efforts in preserving the lions population.I can't do any but I really appreciate and thankful for them with my whole heart.
