Today I return to looking at novels as spycraft, particularly Lewis Carroll, JM Barrie, and HG Wells. I go through Carroll's connections to Oxford, his hobbies and predilections, his relationship with the Liddell family, and the enduring fixation Carroll's work has for pedophiles to this day.

Then, I look at JM Barrie, his ties to the literary scene and the throne, his relationship with the Llewelyn Davies family, and the fate of those children. 

To wrap it up, I discuss several of HG Wells more interesting works, including the World Set Free, the Open Conspiracy, and the New World Order. 

You might have known some of what I talk about today, but I'm certain there are some salient details that biographers seem to like to leave out. 

songs:

  • Wonderland by T*ylor Sw*ft
  • Enter Sandman by Met*llica
  • New World Order by Meg*deth
  • the Eve of the War from Jeff Wayne's Musical Version of The War of the Worlds

it was weird to edit because I'm used to including some tinny old song from the 1950s in my episodes, not a full-ass fleshed out Max Martin pop monstrosity
