Jeff Noon: Automated Alice (1996, Doubleday)

None

This was weird and interesting. With pictures and conversations, as Alice might have said. The animal/people are partly Carrollesque and partly from Vurt and Pollen (and in one picture there are two who have come straight from Bosch’s Garden of Earthly Delights). Talking of Vurt, ‘vurt’ (maybe ‘vert’ from ‘vertical’) is an inline skater’s word for fancy acrobatics.
