Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There

Reader:

Lewis Carroll is a pseudonym of Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, English logician, mathematician, photographer, and novelist, especially remembered for Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and its sequel, Through the Looking-Glass. His poem The Hunting of the Snark is nonsense literature of the highest order. He died of pneumonia following influenza on 14 January 1898 at his sisters' home, "The Chestnuts", in Guildford. He was two weeks away from turning 66 years old. Lewis Carroll’s love of paradox and nonsense and his fondness for small children led to the writing of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, a story which he began while rowing Lorina, Alice, and Edith, the three small daughters of the College Dean H G Liddell, up the Thames for a picnic near Binsey. Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There was first published in 1871. In this sequel to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Alice enters another magical world, this time by making her way into and through a mirror. Like its prequel, this book is also full of extraordinary things: talking flowers, chess pieces that come to life, and an egg called Humpty Dumpty. Through the Looking-Glass includes such verses as "Jabberwocky" and "The Walrus and the Carpenter", and the episode involving Tweedledum and Tweedledee. The mirror which inspired Carroll remains displayed in Charlton Kings.
