Carroll Lewis

What do you do when you see a white rabbit in a vest darting across the lawn consulting a pocket watch? You follow him, of course. So begins Alice's adventure into a world populated by talking animals and wrathful queens, littered with pastries that make people shrink and where it is perpetually tea time. But Carroll's fairy-tale masterpiece is not only studded with unforgettable characters: it is woven with a dense web of linguistic inventions, more or less hidden meanings and blatant nonsense.
A great masterpiece of children's literature and literature in general.
