The Hunting of the Snark: An Agony in Eight Fits is a reimagining of Lewis Carroll's famous "nonsense" poem.

The Hunting of the Snark: An Agony in Eight Fits is a reimagining of Lewis Carroll's famous "nonsense" poem. By subverting the original characters and expanding the narrative through symbolic illustration, this work blends absurdist humor with unexpected emotional depth and playful introspection. The story follows the Bellman and his eclectic crew-a group brought together by only a common restlessness-as they embark on their hunt in a strange land, which appears to be just the place to find the elusive Snark. But as they travel deeper into this distorted world, their efforts become increasingly fragmented and they find far more than Snarks awaiting them. Told through a series of vignettes and side quests, the tale unfolds like a riddle. Just like each character's ambitions, each Fit is self-contained but laced with visual clues that echo and connect the crew's experiences across the work. Each walk of life faces unique trials on their path, and the hunt always yields a discovery-though never the one that was sought. Richly layered with hints, metaphor, and hidden references, The Hunting of the Snark is both a tribute and a transformation of Lewis Carroll's chaotically brilliant poem; presenting a surreal and beautiful journey about identity, longing, and the price of obsession while finding purpose amongst the nonsense of life.
