Literary Wonderlands is a thoroughly researched, wonderfully
written, and beautifully produced book that spans two thousand
years of creative endeavor. From Spenser's The Fairie Queene to
Wells's The Time Machine to Murakami's 1Q84 it explores the
timeless and captivating features of fiction's imagined worlds
including the relevance of the writer's own life to the creation of
the story, influential contemporary events and philosophies, and
the meaning that can be extracted from the details of the work.
With hundreds of pieces of original artwork, illustration and
cartography, as well as a detailed overview of the plot and a
"Dramatis Personae" for each work, Literary Wonderlands is a
fascinating read for lovers of literature, fantasy, and science
fiction.
