ALICE'S ADVENTURES IN WONDERLAND. amp; THROUGH THE LOOKING-GLASS es del autor CARROLL, LEWIS y trata de

This selection of Carroll's works includes Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and its sequel, Trough the Looking-Glass, both containing the famous illustrations by Sir John Tenniel. No greater books for children have ever been written. The simple language, dreamlike atmosphere, and fantastical characters are as appealing to young readers today as they ever were. Meanwhile, however, these apparently simple stories have become recognised as adult masterpieces, and extraordinary experiments, years ahead of their time, in Modernism and  Surrealism. Through wordplay, parody and logical and philosophical puzzles, Carroll engenders a variety of sub-texts, teasing, ominous or  melancholy. For all the surface playfulness there is meaning everywhere. The author reveals himself in glimpses.
