Lilli-Bunny is a small person in blue slippers. He lives at the end of a lane, keeps goats that do not pay, and has never come first in anything.

He does not travel. Lilliput comes to him - knocks at the door, wipes its feet, sits down at his table and explains over tea that his nuts are now subject to a hundred per cent tax, and that the correct end on which to break an egg is a matter of settled national policy.

Global Warming plays cards in the back garden with Global Indifference. A cow with a degree declines to be milked and buys her milk in town. A boulder wraps itself in a bedsheet and attempts to leave the Earth from the chimney, reaching a height of four feet. A bedbug owns four things and will not accept a fifth. An icicle is fed ice cream with a spoon for eleven days by somebody who knows exactly what the sun is doing.

And a boiled sweet asks, quite politely, what she is for - and gets no answer, here or anywhere else in the book.

Sixty-seven chapters, five parts, and a correspondence with a man who has been dead for two thousand years and is therefore the only person who will certainly still be there in the morning.

Swift's angle and Sterne's manners, in a house where nothing is inanimate.
