Jabberwocky Of Authors

Jabberwocky of Authors

by Harry Persons Taber

This humorous poem, a parody of Lewis Carroll's 'Jabberwocky', replaces nearly all the words with the names of famous authors. The poem's nonsensical nature is maintained while subtly referencing well-known literary figures. It serves as a light-hearted exploration of literary history through wordplay.
