Oh, you can’t help that," said the Cat: "we’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad."I needed an adequate amount of nostalgia to guide me through this level of crazy. Little Alice fell I don't enjoy nonsense. I like things to be logical and follow some kind of structure... I guess that's the scientist in me. Of course, not everything can be logical in horror books etc, but this was like a different level of ridiculousness. Nothing made any sense, things were all over the place. We were just jumping around everywhere and I just wanted the experience to be over. If this book wasn't so short, I think it would have became a DNF for me. The drawings were] originally printed alongside the rise of 1960s psychedelia, we can return to examine the curious collaboration between one of the most prolific 20th-century dreamers and one of the 19th-century's most influential fantasies."—Allison Meier, Hyperallergic Now, here, you see, it takes all the running you can do, to keep in the same place.

This copy was given by Lewis Carroll to George William Kitchin, a colleague of Carroll’s at Christ Church, and Secretary of the School Book Committee for the University Press. Kitchin later gave the book to his daughter Alexandra (‘Xie’) Rhoda Kitchin (born 1864), who was one of Carroll’s favourite photographic models. The book is accompanied by an original photograph of her taken by Lewis Carroll. She sold the copy at auction in 1925, but, sadly, died on the day of the sale. Pudney, John (1976).

Princeton University Press. p.137. These stories seem to centre on the idea of escape, escape from a boring reality in which the protagonist enters a world of exciting, and sometimes terrifying, adventure as they walk away from their old mundane life. This is a popular trope and here it works very well, Alice jumps down a rabbit hole and enters a truly insane world that makes little sense.A very, VERY strange book; full of crazy surprises, most of them pleasant ones. Insane adventures, rational beheadings and lovely tea parties. Ironically, not my cup of tea. Literary nonsense is not really my thing. This was my first encounter with the genre and sadly not an experience I hold dear, I realize now I need sense in my readings. Still, even though I did not enjoy it that much this is one timeless classic I’m glad to be able to finally scratch off my list.

You must be,” said the Cat, “or you wouldn’t have come here.” – Lewis Carroll, The Adventures of Alice in Wonderland Original Alice in Wonderland Book Covers But I do love the original animated Disney adaptation. There’s a certain quality to the book that’s captured within that film, which I haven’t found recreated in any other retelling or use of the setting or adaptation. It tells of a girl named Alice falling through a rabbit hole into a fantasy world populated by peculiar, anthropomorphic creatures. Watson, Victor (2001).
