	Bandersnatch - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Bandersnatch is a fictional creature mentioned in Lewis Carroll's poem Jabberwocky.
		The only description given of it is that the hero should "shun the frumious Bandersnatch." Other advice given to the beamish hero proving quite accurate, one must dismiss the possibility that the speaker within the poem was uninformed about the Bandersnatch, which, however, does not actually make an appearance in "Jabberwocky".
		Thus it is clear that the Bandersnatch is not of a size or character to be embraced.

		He must be in his 70s but he has a remarkably young attitude, and his description of the pop single "Bandersnatch" by his fictional heroine, Tamar Valparaiso, is totally convincing to the point that you'll believe it could be in heavy rotation on MTV (if they still played videos).
		"The Frumious Bandersnatch" gives only desultory service to the 87th Precinct trademark situation of detectives working on separate cases, focusing on a single crime, the kidnapping of a pop singer on the rise, who is adapting Lewis Carroll for the hip-hop generation.

	Bandersnatch show combines emo, punk rock - The Daily Orange - Pulp
		Bandersnatch, the subset of University Union Concerts which focuses on bringing lesser-known musical acts to Syracuse University, created a night of punk/emo rock for about 150 people.
		The show, which was put together in a matter of weeks, was the end result of a bumpy road as Bandersnatch members dealt with many different problems in the planning stages; everything from copiers being broken to specific procedures not being followed, said Ryan Raichilson, co-creator of the show and a sophomore management major.
		Bandersnatch constantly has to deal with its small budget, which forces it to pick bands only the minority of students has heard of.

	Bookreporter.com - THE FRUMIOUS BANDERSNATCH by Ed McBain
		I have in the twilight of my middle age grown jaded and cynical, so my initial impression of this new 87th Precinct installment was that it was a short story on steroids, an idea that couldn't carry a novel so was accordingly pumped a bit with filler.
		Matters in THE FRUMIOUS BANDERSNATCH kick into high gear soon enough; Valparaiso, in the middle of lip-synching and dancing her way through a reenactment of her controversial new video, is kidnapped in full view of the horrified partygoers.
		In the meantime, "Bandersnatch" is flying off the shelves, courtesy of the attendant publicity.

		Diving in, you might think "The Frumious Bandersnatch" is one of the 87th's more comic outings, given its goofy name and the focus on the cult of celebrity surrounding this particular case.
		The singer is plucked off a yacht by a pair of masked intruders just as she finishes a lip-synched dance routine for a music industry crowd and a local TV news camera team.
		But there's not much else to be said for "Bandersnatch." It has a remarkably sour conclusion for the jocular set-ups, as if we aren't expected to care about any of the characters McBain has taken such pains in sketching.

		To kick off the CD, Bison owner Barney Loomis has charted a yacht aboard which Tamar and the dancer will reenact the video before assorted guests and a news team from a local TV station.
		It's more of a ''what are they gonna do next," and while there is some surprise at the end, alert readers will guess part of the conclusion early on.
		Initially, the police seize as evidence the TV crew's film of the kidnapping, but once it airs after the station threatens to sue, Tamar is no longer an unknown, and an uproar ensues.

		While I thought that this was a rather clichéd scenario which led to an obvious outcome, McBain has overcome it somewhat by giving the book a rather shocking ending by throwing in a touch of the unexpected.
		For fans of the 87th Precinct series and also for newcomers, I recommend THE FRUMIOUS BANDERSNATCH as a terrific example of a police procedural, written by the master of the sub-genre.

	BookLoons Reviews - Frumious Bandersnatch by Ed McBain
		The title of this 87th Precinct episode comes from Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking Glass poem Jabberwocky, the one that begins ''Twas brillig and the slithy toves did gyre and gimble in the wabe' - and verses are delightfully quoted (and misquoted) throughout the mystery by all its players.
		It's primarily Steve Carella's case, after Tamar is kidnapped during a rape enactment at her launch party by two men and a woman.
		The Frumious Bandersnatch was high entertainment on all levels, and I hope to read many more 87th Precinct cases.

		But no one attending the dazzling launch party for up-and-coming pop idol Tamar Valparaiso knew what they were seeing when, halfway through her performance, masked men whisked the sexy young singer off a luxury yacht and into a waiting speedboat.
		Now, the evening that was supposed to send Tamar's debut album, Bandersnatch, skyrocketing with a million-dollar promotional campaign has instead kicked off a terrifying countdown for Steve Carella and the detectives of the 87th Precinct.
		Time is their enemy in the race to find Tamar's abductors -- before the rising star is extinguished forever.
