Summary "Rhyme? and Reason?" by Lewis Carroll is a collection of poems and whimsical narratives written in the late 19th century. The work showcases Carroll's characteristic blend of playful language, absurdity, and imagination, inviting readers into a world where rhyme and logic intertwine with elements of fantasy. This compilation includes various pieces such as "Phantasmagoria" and "The Hunting of the Snark," each featuring eccentric characters and inventive storytelling. At the start of the work, the reader is introduced to "Phantasmagoria," where a protagonist, after a long day, encounters a shy ghost in his study. The ghost, despite his frightful appearance, proves to be inquisitive and earnest, explaining the etiquette ghosts must follow when haunting humans. Their conversation is marked by humor and misunderstandings, evoking a sense of charm as the ghost nervously attempts to share "The Five Good Rules of Etiquette" that govern his interactions, setting the stage for a playful exploration of the supernatural blended with mundane life.
