Synopsis
A story presented as if it were a lost Lewis Carroll manuscript, complete with annotations and original illustrations.
From the Author
Alice's Journey Beyond The Moon is something I wrote both for children and Carroll scholars alike. Presented as something Carroll might have written during the time of Alice Pleasance Liddell's engagement to Reginald Hargreaves, with historical footnotes (a la Martin Gardner's excellent Annotated Alice) added to reflect events in Carroll's life up to that point.
This is my first published work for which a tree gave its life. I hope you enjoy it. -- R.J. Carter
Customer Reviews
Wonderlandful!
The description for this book (particularly the "From the author" section) given on this product's page tells you all you need to know. And I have to say, this is a lovely little book. The story is genuinely Carrollian, the footnotes a la Martin Gardner are a joy, and the illustrations are delightful. Also, the "lost manuscript" notion is an excellent twist; suspending belief, I could almost believe Lewis Carroll truly did write this!
