'I had sent my heroine straight down a rabbit-hole ... without the least idea what was to happen afterwards,' wrote Charles Dodgson, famously describing how the world of Alice was conjured one 'golden afternoon' to entertain his child-friend Alice Liddell. Carroll's delightful nonsense books provide readers of all ages with a double window on the wonderlands of childhood and adulthood. Undisputed children's classics, they are also, as Hugh Haughton writes in his introduction, 'two of the most original, experimental works of literary fiction in the nineteenth century'. This Penguin Classics edition also includes all Tenniel's illustrations along with a selection from Carroll's own pencil illustrations for Alice's Adventures under Ground.
