   Heretic!  While there is no doubt that Mr. Dodgson wrote /Alice/ as stories   
   to tell to children, they go well beyond being "children's books".  Now,   
   I'm going to have to go back and reread /The Annotated Alice/ (and, I   
   suppose, have to add /The Master and Margarita/ to my list).
