978-987-8978-18-5 - ALICE S ADVENTURES IN WONDERLAND
During a boring afternoon, while her sister is sewing under a tree, Alice sees a talking, clothed white rabbit with a pocket watch run past. She decides to follow him down a rabbit hole when, suddenly, she falls a long way into a fantasy world populated by peculiar, anthropomorphic creatures. The tale plays with logic, giving the story lasting popularity with adults as well as children. It is considered to be one of the best examples of the literary nonsense genre. Its narrative, plot, structure, characters and imagery have been enormously influential in both popular culture and literature, especially in the fantasy genre. This volume includes John Tenniel's original illustrations, beautifully colored by author and illustrator Leo Batic.

Charles Lutwidge Dodgson wrote this wonderful tale under the pen name of Lewis Carroll. It was written for Alice Liddell, the daughter of a fellow college professor at the University of Oxford in England and first published in 1871. The full title of the book is Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There. It was a sequel to Carroll's original tale Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. In this new story, Alice climbs through a mirror into a world where everything is upside-down. In this sequel, we see a mirror-image of Wonderland populated by some of the strangest creatures in fiction and considered the finest example of the "literary nonsense" genre. One of the classics of English literature, it remains popular within both adults and children. A beautiful edition with 50 classic John Tenniel illustrations and beautifully colored by artist Leo Batic.
