  • I think I enjoyed Through the Looking Glass a bit more than Alice's Adventures because it has had less thorough media attention than Alice's Adventures has so there were more parts of it that were new to me.

  • Some stories one knows, but has never read. This was one such tale. Some time during college I took to reading this on my own. A wonderful tale of fantasy. That Carroll made these stories up on the spot to entertain his daughter/niece? is just amazing.

    A fun read for everyone.

Conceived by a shy British don on a golden afternoon to entertain ten-year-old Alice Liddell and her sisters, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass have delighted generations of readers in more than eighty languages. “The clue to the enduring fascination and greatness of the Alice books,” writes A. S. Byatt in her Introduction, “lies in language. . . . It is play, and word-play, and its endless intriguing puzzles continue to reveal themselves long after we have ceased to be children.”
