Far from being simple escapism, or for children, fantasy is often used to confront complex topical issues. We consider Carroll's Alice books as psychology, Peake's Titus Groan and Gormenghast as satire, and The Lord of the Rings as history, asking throughout about the persistent recourse to fantasy evident in much modern writing.
