Alice Through the Looking Glass

In 1865, Lewis Carroll gave us back Alice from her adventures in Wonderland. The courageous heroine survived the fall down the rabbit hole, a tea party with crazy people and the trial of the Queen of Hearts. But there was still one more story to tell... DarkSide® Books invites the reader to embark on another journey through the fantastic and unsettling world of Lewis Carroll. In Alice Through the Looking Glass, our protagonist finds herself in a place where appearances are not only deceiving, but also the opposite. In this upside-down world, Alice is challenged to delve into the mysteries of imagination in a universe that is disturbingly similar to reality. It is with the well-known irony that permeates his writings that Carroll returns to his masterpiece, so loved and revered to this day in all corners of the world. Alice Through the Looking Glass brings the elements we love so much — the nonsense, the criticism, the word games and the playful elements —, familiar faces and also new memorable creatures, such as Tweedledee and Tweedledum and Humpty Dumpty. The reader is also presented with two of the author's most famous poems: “The Walrus and the Carpenter” and the very entertaining “Jabberwocky”, which gained a new translation in Brazil in an inspired and careful work by researcher Marcia Heloisa, already known to darksiders for his work with The Wizard of Oz, Dracula and the two volumes dedicated to Edgar Allan Poe. The work also includes an Afterword by mathematician and researcher Rafael Montoito, which addresses nonsense and mathematical logic, themes dear to the author and present in this classic: “Nonsense is the power and bridge of a multiverse created by Lewis Carroll, a multiverse that which goes beyond Through the Looking Glass, anticipating by more than a century what superhero comics, films, series and video games would become common”. For those who insist on honoring the classics, the Classic Edition features John Tenniel's original illustrations for the 1871 edition, as well as a graphic design that harks back to the time of the novel's release. The Limited Edition features the beautiful illustrations by Brazilian artist Mika Takahashi, whose delicate and impactful lines had already amazed readers of Alice in Wonderland. Alice Through the Looking Glass is a huge journey across a chessboard, an adventure full of philosophical reflections. A true literary classic that survives the passage of time, captivating readers generation after generation. Ready to step through the looking glass?
