In "Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There," Lewis Carroll invites readers into a fantastical realm, continuing the adventures of Alice with a narrative that defies conventional logic and chronological order. This sequel retains CarrollAos whimsical literary style, employing playful language, paradox, and intricate wordplay, all while introducing a rich tableau of characters and settings. The narrative unfolds as a chess-themed allegory, where each chapter mirrors the movement of chess pieces, enhancing the texts complexity and inviting various interpretations concerning identity and agency amidst the nonsensical backdrop. Lewis Carroll, a pseudonym for Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, was an Oxford mathematician and logician whose creative genius bound together a deep understanding of language with a fascination for the absurd. His unique perspective, shaped by his experiences in Victorian England and his love for childrenAos literature, is evident in the innovative structure of this work. Carrolls exploration of the fantastical reflects both his mathematical inclinations and his insightful observations on the nature of childhood, reality, and imagination. For readers enamored with literary whimsy and philosophical puzzles, "Through the Looking-Glass" is a must-read. It captivates the imagination and challenges perceptions, offering layers of meaning that resonate with both children and adults. Carrolls masterful storytelling and inventive use of language beckon new audiences to experience the enchanting and thought-provoking world of Alice once more.

Alicia está tomando las lecciones del día en un jardín, junto a su hermana. El libro, aburridísimo, y sin imágenes, hace que desvíe la mirada.

La curiosidad de Alicia es demasiada y decide perseguir al Conejo Blanco, sin imaginarse, todas las aventuras que le esperarian. Y, como dice la duquesa, "Aqui hay una moraleja"

Sylvie and Bruno, first published in 1889, and its second volume Sylvie and Bruno Concluded published in 1893, form the last novel by Lewis Carroll published during his lifetime. Both volumes were illustrated by Harry Furniss.The novel has two main plots: one set in the real world at the time the book was published (the Victorian era), the other in the fantasy world of Fairyland. While the latter plot is a fairy tale with many nonsense elements and poems, similar to Carrolls Alice books, the story set in Victorian Britain is a social novel, with its characters discussing various concepts and aspects of religion, society, philosophy and morality.
