Анотація "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (Penguin English Library)", Льюїс Керрол
The Penguin English Library Edition of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Carroll
'"Curiouser and curiouser!" cried Alice (she was so surprised, that for the moment she quite forgot how to speak good English). "Now I'm opening out like the largest telescope that ever was! Goodbye, feet!"'
'I had sent my heroine straight down a rabbit-hole ... without the least idea what was to happen afterwards,' wrote Lewis Carroll, describing how Alice was conjured up one 'golden afternoon' in 1862 to entertain his child-friend Alice Liddell. His dream worlds of nonsensical Wonderland and the back-to-front Looking Glass kingdom depict order turned upside-down: a baby turns into a pig, time is abandoned at a disorderly tea-party and a chaotic game of chess makes a seven-year-old girl a Queen. But amongst the anarchic humour and sparkling word play, puzzles and riddles, are poignant moments of nostalgia for lost childhood.
Твір мені сподобався. І він не такий дурний, як може здатися. Книга просочена тонкою сатирою, іронією, та підтекстом дитячості. Гадаю, що мені б і не завадило прочитати цю книгу ще раз: не усе і відразу розбереш! Наскільки там усе заплутано... Але у хорошому сенсі!
