quoted from the article at link below:
"But like the existentially unstable characters who were to be created in
the 20th century by those who claimed Carroll as a forebear — writers like
André Breton, Jorge Luis Borges and Vladimir Nabokov, who said he called
him Lewis Carroll Carroll <http://www.jstor.org/stable/441056?seq=1> because
he was “the first Humbert Humbert” — Carroll is usually just out of focus
in the immense forest of biographical documents that surround him. In the
Morgan’s exhibition, which includes the July 4, 1862, journal entry in
which Carroll first mentions the fateful “expedition up the river to
Godstow with the three Liddells,” the fantastical fictional characters
often emerge seeming more real than their creator.""
