Requests for my Timeline?

C.S. Lewis..the Narnia books could easily adapt to an independent, Zoraoastorian Persia, or a stronger pre-Captivity Israel.
JRR Tolkein...can see interest in altlanguages, and stirring speeches.
If GK Chesterton was a regular here, he'd have developed a reputation for being a Mary Stuart fan.
I can see Stella Gibbons trying a tl 'If Byron Hadn't Been Such A Talented Poet'.
From Stephen Jay Gould some nice alternate zoology (and zoologists).
Tony Hillerman could have done some really good stuff with larger Dineh nations.
Agatha Christie...British Empire wank. (She rather did anyway.)


Is your POD early enough for at least some hardboiled private eye writers to adopt time sliding?


And, don't forget, some people would be asking 'If Jane Austen, or Charles Dickens, wrote althistory, what would they be writing?'

Well, my POD is in 1932, so unfortunately, I don't think so. However, private eyes could make a comeback at some point.;)

And good ideas, btw. I especially like the idea about Zoroastorian Persia being analogical to Narnia.
