Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll is the sequel to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. Alice again enters a fantastical world, this time by climbing through a mirror into the world that she can see beyond it. There she finds that, just like a reflection, everything is reversed, including logic: running helps you remain stationary, walking away from something brings you towards it, chessmen are alive, nursery rhyme characters exist. From her guest appearance as a pawn in a chess match to her meeting with Humpty Dumpty, Through the Looking Glass follows Alice on her curious adventure and shows Carroll's great skill at creating an imaginary world full of the fantastical and extraordinary.Unabridged edition with an interactive table of contents.

Alice in Wonderland. E-book. Formato Mobipocket Lewis Carroll   -  Synapse Publishing, 2019  - 

Conceived as a children's book, but also read and reread by adults, 'Alice in Wonderland' is a brilliant novel: a fantastic and subtly satirical story, in which the masterly interweaving of linguistic inventions, reversals of meaning, logical tricks and absurd situations encourages us to look at reality from unusual points of view. In Wonderland, together with Alice and through her eyes, we meet strange creatures and, as we follow Alice on her paradoxical adventures in this subterranean dream world, we discover a metaphor for the absurdity of adult life, to finally come to the liberating conclusion that we do not always have to look for a meaning, especially if there is no meaning.Full edition with an interactive table of contents.
