There are dozens of wonderful anecdotes, conversations, quotations, and letters referenced in the book. The author saves the references to the end which is disappointing because it simply meant that I never bothered to look them up. And for all the prodigious first-hand material shared in this book, the final two chapters move to more of a summary of the Inklings and a practical guide of how to emulate what they had. These felt out of place and belong properly in some other work, but what does belong is so good that perhaps this misstep can be overlooked. In the Netflix show, Stefan is shown carrying a choose-your-own-adventure book called Bandersnatch around with him at all times, which is written by Jerome F. Davies, as he is making a computer game based on the book.

Multi-narrative, non-linear stories are also antithetical to production schedules. Many of the scenes exist in multiple different versions, each one subtly tweaked depending on the decision a viewer has chosen. The difficulties of keeping them consistent, while avoiding continuity errors, make the format a nightmare for directors, editors and actors. Glyer also describes a principle of his life as being "Everyone, all the time, owes his life to others. It is not only in war that this is true. We cannot eat breakfast without being nourished by some life that has been laid down. If our breakfast is cereal or toast, then it is the life of grains of wheat that have gone into the ground and died that we might have food. If it is bacon, then the blood of some pig has been shed for the sake of my nourishment." Such a beautiful way to appreciate the world and those who participate in it with, for, and because of us.Bandersnatch is a well-written, accessible window into the lives and relationships of the famous writing group known as the Inklings, whose most prominent members included C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien. The amount of research poured into the book is staggering, representing many years of diligent pursuit. Some of the fragments and breadcrumbs discovered would impress even the most keen-eyed of sleuths. For anyone interested in the vibrant role the Inklings played in the lives of these men, or for those who have enjoyed the works of Lewis and Tolkien and are eager for information about their lives, this is a must-read. Dutch composer Theo Verbey wrote a piece called Bandersnatch for cello and pianola, which was premiered during the 2010 Amsterdam Cello Biennale.

What new great works might arise if we were to form Inklings-type communities for our own creative projects? Diana Glyer's new book, Bandersnatch, gives aspiring artists a lively birds-eye view into the internal workings of one of the most famous literary groups of all time and provides a roadmap for the aspiring author who dreams of a new "Narnia". Her guidebook provides the impetus for creating in collaboration with others. Based on her own scholarly research over twenty years, Bandersnatch identifies what it was about the Inklings that enabled each of them, not just one, to be prodigious in their output during the years they were collaborating. And it gives the reader the necessary information to do the same.

Does Davies’ fictional book link up to any other references?

The Inklings were by no means a perfect group, delivering criticism with perfection or anything like that, but they worked through it and truly everyone was a better writer because of it. Where your decisions are the difference between life and death … Bandersnatch. Photograph: Stuart Hendry/Netflix It’s also possible to watch the episode without lifting your remote once. Brooker and Jones have pre-programmed a default path through the episode that will lead all the way to an ending, but to do that viewers will have to choose to ignore decision points. One of the plotlines sees Stefan taking acid, and Colin explaining the conspiracy theories that he believes are at work in society: again, that the government is drugging the public’s food and water, and that they’re controlling us and life – and death – is just an illusion and we have infinite parallel lives.
