About this deal

Carroll meets another Alice, Alice Raikes, during his time in London. He talks with her about her reflection in a mirror, leading to the sequel, Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There, which sells even better. The "calculated pandemonium" of the splendidly irrational kingdom of Wonderland is what Barry Moser set out to capture in illustrating the Lewis Carroll classic. In his seventy-five wood carvings, Barry Moser depicts with invention, wit and skill the quite exceptional inhabitants and sights of Wonderland, the March Hare, the Queen of Hearts, the Cheshire Cat's grin. The result is startlingly original. Alice is a brunette.

In the eighth chapter, three cards are painting the roses on a rose tree red, because they had accidentally planted a white-rose tree that The Queen of Hearts hates. According to Wilfrid Scott-Giles, the rose motif in Alice alludes to the English Wars of the Roses: red roses symbolised the House of Lancaster, while white roses symbolise their rival House of York.

He collaboratedwith Canadian printmaker and teacher George A Walker and printer Bill Poole to produce his own Alice in Wonderland and Through The Looking Glass. Brabant created his own hand-printed edition of a mere 177 copies. Brabant and Walker chose unusual scenes, which makes the book all the more distinctive.

Carroll began writing the manuscript of the story the next day, although that earliest version is lost. The girls and Carroll took another boat trip a month later, when he elaborated the plot to the story of Alice, and in November he began working on the manuscript in earnest. [20] To add the finishing touches he researched natural history in connection with the animals presented in the book and then had the book examined by other children—particularly those of George MacDonald. Though Carroll did add his own illustrations to the original copy, on publication he was advised to find a professional illustrator so the pictures were more appealing to its audiences. He subsequently approached John Tenniel to reinterpret Carroll's visions through his own artistic eye, telling him that the story had been well liked by the children.
