A girl follows a rabbit down a hole and enters a world where logic is inverted, language plays tricks, and the Red Queen will have your head. Lewis Carroll, a mathematician and clergyman, created for a real girl named Alice a story that has become the shared dream of childhood itself. The nonsense is mathematically precise; the illustrations by Tenniel are inseparable from the text. Generations of readers have explored its depths, finding reflections of everything from logic to psychoanalysis. The book refuses to be exhausted.
