# The Hunting of the Snark: An Agony in Eight Fits

By Lewis Carroll.

"The Hunting of the Snark: An Agony in Eight Fits" by Lewis Carroll is a nonsense poem written between 1874 and 1876. A crew of ten peculiar characters embarks on an absurd quest to hunt the mysterious Snark, guided only by a blank map. Their journey becomes increasingly strange as they encounter fantastical creatures and face a terrifying possibility: the Snark might actually be a deadly Boojum. When one crew member finally discovers their quarry, he vanishes without a trace, confirming their darkest fears. (Summary by Project Gutenberg, written by machine.)
