"I was walking on a hillside, alone one bright summer day, when suddenly there came into my head one line of verse - one solitary line - 'For the Snark was a Boojum, you see.' I knew not what it meant then; I know not what it means now."
(Rev Charles Dodgson ) Michael Bakewell examines the history and various interpretations of Lewis Carroll 's nonsense verse about "an impossible voyage of an improbable crew, to find an inconceivable creature", and introduces a dramatised reading.
