Hatter (2000) - Plot & Excerpts

This was a brilliant work of art! Coleman keeps to the original Carroll style making for a madly wild ride of randomness! I really enjoyed reading about the life of "literature's most lovable lunatic" prior to Alice in Wonderland. It brought a whole new and understandable light to his character and I loved all of Coleman's subtle (and sometimes not-so-subtle) references or set-ups-for the classic; including characters! I loved spotting parallels in personality or appearance that gave their true "future" role away. (The Cheshire Cat playing a part from the very beginning was genius! Loved the parts with him.)The writing style was fascinating and I was super happy there was no profanity in the dialogue! :DThis really gave me a new perspective on my favorite classic that is actually believable (well, in a Wonderland sort of way ;)) and didn't ruin my taste for any of it- it actually made me want to read Alice in Wonderland again, specifically to read it with this prologue in mind. 4.5 stars. HATTER was a jewel of a find, fleshing out familiar characters beyond the mad portrayals we see in the traditional portrayal of Wonderland and seamlessly weaving Lewis Carroll's gibberish into a realistic fantasy setting (trust me, these words don't contradict each other). The only thing that bewildered me a bit was the resolution chosen here, in comparison to what I already know of the characters as previously established.
