Description: Produced between 1869 and 1930 - the golden age of Carroll's influence on popular literature - these works trace the extraordinary creative, and often critical, response of diverse writers.

Their stories range from Christina Rossetti's angry subversion of Alice's adventures, to G.E. Farrow's witty fantasy adventure, to Edward Hope's hilarious parody of social and political foibles.
