Follow Alice down the rabbit hole into a world where nothing is quite as it seems. There are mad hatters, Cheshire cats, enormous teardrops and terrifying red queens – but are they all just a pack of cards? Lewis Carroll’s imagination takes the reader on a rollercoaster fantasy ride, through the looking glass and beyond.

With an Introduction and Notes by Michael Irwin, Professor of English Literature, University of Kent at Canterbury.
Tweedledum and Tweedledee, the Mad Hatter, the Cheshire Cat, the Red Queen and the White Rabbit all make their appearances, and are now familiar figures in writing, conversation and idiom. So too are Carroll’s delightful verses such as The Walrus and the Carpenter and the inspired jargon of that masterly Wordsworthian parody, The Jabberwocky.
