Jeff Noon has always been influenced by the work of Lewis Carroll, especially the two Alice books. In Automated Alice he brings Carroll's vision thoroughly up to date. Not so much a sequel to Alice in Wonderland and Through The Looking Glass, more of a trequel, the third book in a series of misadventures even wierder than your dreams. Jeff Noon's previous novels, Vurt and Pollen, have attracted a cult following with their psychedelic science fiction creation of the realm of "Vurt"--a region. Noon describes Automated Alice as a "trequel" - it is a companion piece of sorts to Lewis Carroll's books Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass. The novella follows Alice's journey to a future Manchester populated by Newmonians, Civil Serpents and a vanishing cat named Quark. However, “for want of a better word” he does call his new book, Automated Alice an “avant-fantasy.”. Clearly he feels there is something previously unlabelled to be found between its covers. What he’s written is the “trequel” to Lewis Carroll’s Alice tales; Alice steps into the near-futuristic Mancunian nightmare Noon created in his previous novels Vurt and Pollen.
