This, courtesy of Neil Gaiman's not inconsiderable nose for the weird, is amazing. Bizarre and 19th-century and random, but amazing. Lose yourself. Wonder. It shifts and morphs when you mouse-over and click. (There's an explanation here, but it's actually contra-indicated.) Also, it has owls.

And this man does exquisite things to language. Why have I never read him before? Cruel universe.

I did lose myself. I scorched supper.
You have stray inverted commas at the tail end of that contra-indicated link, which does sell the animation (for lack of a better word) short.

Really lovely!

Oops! that's what comes of posting in a mad hurry before rushing off to solace late-registering student twits. Thanks for pointing that out.

Sorry about supper...
