Ronald Firbank is one of a handful of writers who have refused to contribute to this useful collection, have instead preferred to people their own wonderland with creatures of their own invention. Firbank's wonderland-one story, nine "novels" and a sort of play-is all contained in the 766 pages of the Complete Firbank...
