This month's book is Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (commonly shortened to Alice in Wonderland) by Lewis Carroll, which will be presented by Briony.

From Wikipedia:
"An 1865 novel written by English mathematician Charles Lutwidge Dodgson under the pseudonym Lewis Carroll, it tells of a girl named Alice falling through a rabbit hole into a fantasy world populated by peculiar, anthropomorphic creatures. The tale plays with logic, giving the story lasting popularity with adults as well as with children. It is considered to be one of the best examples of the literary nonsense genre. Its narrative course and structure, characters and imagery have been enormously influential in both popular culture and literature, especially in the fantasy genre."

Themes include: children's literature, nonsense, hallucinations, political allegory, rabbits.

If you’ve read it, come along and discuss it in an atmosphere of curiosity and good humour.

If you haven’t read it: no problem! Come along anyway. Our meetings always include a detailed overview of the book, its author and its main themes so there’s plenty to talk about.
