With an Introduction and Notes by Michael Irwin, Professor of English Literature, University of Kent at Canterbury This selection of Carroll's works includes Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and its sequel, Through the Looking-Glass, both containing the famous illustrations by Sir John Tenniel. No greater books for children have ever been written. The simple language, dreamlike atmosphere, and fantastical characters are as appealing to young readers today as ever they were. Meanwhile, however, these apparently simple stories have become recognised as adult masterpieces, and extraordinary experiments, years ahead of their time, in Modernism and Surrealism. Through wordplay, parody and logical and philosophical puzzles, Carroll engenders a variety of sub-texts, teasing, ominous or melancholy. For all the surface playfulness there is meaning everywhere. The author reveals himself in glimpses.

Alenku jsem začala mít ráda už ve svých pěti letech, kdy jsem se s ní poprvé seznámila. 😄 Do tohoto příběhu jsem se zamilovala a tak můj cíl byl takový, že si jednou přečtu tuto knihu v angličtině. Stalo se. 😅
Docela jsem se bála, že mi to nepůjde, šlo to ale úžasně. Příběh je velice vtipný, najdete v něm ponaučení, lásku ale i odvahu se pokusit o mnohé věci! ❤ Pokud jste snílci, co touží po něčem, co je vám nedosažitelné, tak byste si mohli přečíst tuto knihu. 😊
Za mě jedno velké ANO! ❤
