Alice's Adventures in Wonderland tells of Alice, a girl who falls through a rabbit hole into a fantasy world populated by peculiar, anthropomorphic creatures. The tale’s distorted and sometimes disorienting logic has contributed to its enduring popularity with adults as well as with children. It is one of the best examples of the literary nonsense genre, and its narrative course, structure, characters, and imagery have all been enormously influential in both popular culture and literature.In Through the Looking Glass, Alice once again finds herself transported to a bizarre and nonsensical setting after she passes through a mirror into the “looking-glass world,” where precisely nothing is quite as it seems, and where almost everything is reversed. This handsome, inexpensive edition, complete with the original John Tenniel illustrations, makes available to today's readers a classic of juvenile literature long-cherished for its humor, whimsy, and incomparable fantasy.
