BfK No. 71 - November 1991
Cover Story
The illustration on the front of BfK this month is the cover of Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking-Glass with illustrations by Sir John Tenniel. The book is published by Macmillan (0 333 29037 2) at £9.99, and we're grateful for their help in using this picture of Alice and the White Knight.
This book is pure, outrageous fun. Sammy's Grandpa's reminiscences become increasingly outlandish as he blithely caps every one of his grandson's achievements. Biro's depiction of the totally deadpan Grandpa, as he announces these feats and is then seen actually doing them, is guaranteed to leave the reader smirking inanely for a very long time!
