"Among the 20 selections, written between 1869 and 1930, Sigler finds several gems: delightful homages, determined imitations and devotional sequels to Carroll's works.-- Publishers Weekly" -- Publishers Weekly, A peculiar and intriguing assembly of material that demonstrates the diversity of responses to Lewis Carroll's books., "Visions and revisions of Lewis Carroll's Alice books are presented in a study which is recommended for any college-level student of Carroll's influences" -- Midwest Book Review, Sigler collects some jewels of literature by writers as diverse as Christina Rossetti, Frances Hodgson Burnett, E.

Synopsis
Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland (1865) and Through the Looking Glass (1871) are among the most enduring works in the English language. In the decades following their publication, writers on both sides of the Atlantic produced no fewer than two hundred imitations, revisions, and parodies of Carroll's fantasies for children. Carolyn Sigler has gathered the most interesting and original of these responses to the Alice books, many of them long out of print. Produced between 1869 and 1930, these works trace the extraordinarily creative, and often critical, response of diverse writers. These writers -- male and female, radical and conservative -- appropriated Carroll's structures, motifs, and themes in their Alice-inspired works in order to engage in larger cultural debates. Their stories range from Christina Rossetti's angry subversion of Alice's adventures, Speaking Likenesses (1874), to G.E. Farrow's witty fantasy adventure, The Wallypug of Why (1895), to Edward Hope's hilarious parody of social and political foibles, Alice in the Delighted States (1928). Anyone who has ever followed Alice down the rabbit hole will enjoy the adventures of her literary siblings in the wide Wonderland of the human imagination., Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland (1865) and Through the Looking Glass (1871) are among the most enduring works in the English language.

The boots were just like they were in the pictures even up the little distressing on the front of the boot. A bit tight on the heels but that’s on me and if you’re trying to be stylish you gotta be a bit uncomfortable but very good pricing and seller was super nice!

I received the items very promptly. They were packaged with care in a box, as not to harm them during shipment. I really appreciated that, as one of the items is glass. They were both exactly as described, new in box. I would recommend this seller to anyone without hesitation.Pusheen Metal Cookie Jar AND Sundae Glass Bundle 2021 Box Exclusive NEW in Boxes (N° 305652377290)
