Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There

Charles Lutwidge Dodgson wrote this wonderful tale under the pen name of Lewis Carroll. It was written for Alice Liddell, the daughter of a fellow college professor at the University of Oxford in England and first published in 1871. The full title of the book is Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There. It was a sequel to Carroll’s original tale Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. In this new story, Alice climbs through a mirror into a world where everything is upside-down. In this sequel, we see a mirror-image of Wonderland populated by some of the strangest creatures in fiction and considered the finest example of the “literary nonsense” genre. One of the classics of English literature, it remains popular within both adults and children. A beautiful edition with 50 classic John Tenniel illustrations and beautifully colored by artist Leo Batic.
