Beschreibung

"Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" was written by English author Lewis Carroll in 1865. It is a tale of Alice, a young girl, who falls drown a rabbit hole to emerge in a subterranean fantasy world. Considered by scholars as the best example of literary nonsense, Carroll describes a world inhabited by anthropomorphic creatures and events that defy logic. How he combined imagery, whimsical verse, and presented his characters, influenced the modern-day fantasy genre, making "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" one of the most popular stories of all time. Carroll's book has been translated into almost 100 languages. It has been adapted for stage and cinema productions, radio drama, and ballet performances, as well as becoming a perennial subject of art exhibitions.
