'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland' is the world's first surrealist book, written in 1865, at a time when the word surrealism had not yet been invented. The author of this dream-like fantasy, full of puns and ironic comments on adult life, was Lewis Carroll (real name Charles Dodgson), who devised the story for three young girls during a boat trip on the river Isis in Oxford. Since its publication, 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland' has been a firm favourite with children of all ages, and adults too can find deeper layers of meaning beneath the madcap adventures of Alice and her outlandish...

'Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank, and of having nothing to do: once or twice she had peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it had no pictures or conversations in it, "and what is the use of a book," thought Alice, "without pictures or conversations?"'
So begins the tale of Alice, who follows a curious White Rabbit down a hole and falls into Wonderland, a fantastical place where nothing is quite as it seems: animals talk, nonsensical characters...

Lewis Carroll wrote Alice through the Looking Glass in 1871, five years after his more famous Alices Adventures in Wonderland. Partaking of the same surreal and dream-like quality, the book tells the story of Alices magical trip through her living room mirror and the eccentric army of comic characters she finds on the other side. Illustrated with 50 wonderful original drawings by Sir John Tenniel. An all-time favourite with children of all ages, adults may discern deeper layers of meaning contained in the book- some believe that Lewis Carroll left a code within Alice through the Looking...

Witty, whimsical, and often nonsensical, the fiction of Lewis Carroll has been popular with both children and adults for over 150 years. The newest edition to the Leatherbound Classics series from Canterbury Classics, Lewis Carroll takes readers on a trip down the rabbit hole in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, where height is dynamic, animals talk, and the best solutions to drying off are a dry lecture on William the Conqueror and a Caucus Race in which everyone runs in circles and there is no clear winner. Through the Looking Glass begins the adventure anew when Alice...

Lewis Carroll alneven irt: Charles Lutwidge Dodgson volt az igazi neve, es matematikat tanitott az Oxfordi Egyetem Christ Church kollegiumaban. Dodgson 1862. julius 4-en kezdte el a meset, amikor csonakkirandulasra ment a Temzen Robinson Duckworth tiszteletessel, a tizeves Alice Liddell-lel, a kollegium esperesenek lanyaval es Alice ket testverevel, a tizenharom eves Lorinaval es a nyolceves Edith-tel. Ahogy a versben olvashato a konyv elejen, a harom kislany megkerte Dodgsont, hogy mondjon nekik egy meset, pedig eleinte vonakodva kezdte meselni nekik a tortenet els valtozatat. Sok felig...

In Carroll's sequel to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Alice once again finds herself in a bizarre and nonsensical place when she passes through a mirror and enters a looking-glass world where nothing is quite as it seems. From her guest appearance as a pawn in a chess match to her meeting with Humpty Dumpty, Through the Looking Glass follows Alice on her curious adventure and shows Carroll's great skill at creating an imaginary world full of...
