More than just a light-hearted children's story, Lewis Carroll's 'Alice in Wonderland' delves deep into the issues of alienation and connection as a means by which to demonstrate how people adapt to otherwise uncomfortable situations. The author, himself, was a self-proclaimed misfit of sorts when it came to fitting into society, which served to lay the foundation for the multitude of adventures Alice ultimately embarks upon. The writer discusses how Alice is representational of a solitary soul who is forever searching for that one connection to make her feel a part of the masses. No additional sources cited.
