novel, science fiction, cyberpunk, avant pulp
3rd novel. Illustrated by Jeff Noon.
"In which Jeff Noon takes on the mantelpiece of Lewis Carroll bringing Alice thoroughly up to date. Not so much a sequel to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass, more of a trequel, the third book in a series of misadventures, even weirder than your dreams.
"When Alice travels through time and hits the pavements of a retro 1998 Manchester, she encounters an automated future crowded with mutant hybrids, sinister game play, chaos theory, a roboAlice doppelgänger, quantum physics, computermites, jigsaw killers, tickling Vurt feathers, puzzle poems, secret messages and an invisible cat called Quark." [jacket blurb, UK uncorrected proof copy, August 1996]
"In which Lewis Carroll sends Alice through a clock's face. She travels through time, to 1998, in Manchester. Her adventures in the weirdness of now." --Jeff Noon.
