Synopsis
Lewis Carroll's novels Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass have entertained readers young and old for more than a century. Their magical worlds, amusing characters, spirited dialogue, and playfully illogical logic have made them landmarks of Victorian fiction that epitomize the wit and whimsy of Carroll's writing. This collection of Carroll's complete works includes, in addition to his best-known fiction, his novels Sylvie and Bruno and Sylvie and Bruno Concluded, as well as shorter prose works, stories and puzzles. Also featured is Carroll's complete verse, including The Hunting of the Snark� and more than a dozen poems not collected in his life-time. Comprehensive and eclectic, this volume presents the reader with timeless works reflecting the cleverness and ingenuity that were Carroll's unique gifts. It's possible that if Lewis Carroll had never met Alice Liddell, he might have enjoyed a more peaceful lifetime and an obscure legacy. But his whimsical inventiveness touched everything he did, and a story he made up one afternoon for a little girl became one of literature's great classics, Alice in Wonderland.
