A moment later Alice is inside the looking-glass world. There she finds herself part of a great game of chess, travelling through forests and jumping across brooks.

Neustále ohromená, zvídavá a taky hodně zvědavá Alenka se dostane do zvláštního světa, ve kterém nedává skoro nic smysl. Pronásleduje například mluvícího králíka s hodinkami a setkává se s dalšími podivnými stvořeními, která se chovají naprosto nepochopitelně. Anebo ona se chová nepochopitelně? A jak to asi vypadá za zrcadlem? Vydejte se s Alenkou do kraje divů a za zrcadlo a prožijte s ní dobrodružství, která jinde neprožijete.
Alenčina dobrodružství v kraji divů za zrcadlem

Nejznámější dílo Lewise Carrolla v novém překladu Heleny Čížkové. Neustále ohromená a zvídavá Alenka se v obou příbězích obsažených v knize dostane do zvláštního cizího světa. V prvním díle Alenčina dobrodružství v kraji divů pronásleduje Alenka mluvícího králíka s hodinkami. Skokem do králičí nory se začne rozvíjet příběh plný podivuhodných událostí. Alenka se zde setkává s nejrůznějšími stvořeními, která se chovají zcela nepochopitelně. Druhý díl Za zrcadlem a co tam Alenka našla je volné pokračování, v němž se Alenka rozhodne objevit, jak to vypadá ve světě za zrcadlem, ve kterém je mimochodem všechno naopak.
Toto speciální kompletní vydání Carrollovy Alenky v klasickém českém překladu od Jaroslava Císaře obsahuje oba díly dilogie – první díl Alenčina dobrodružství v říši divů i druhou knihu Za zrcadlem a co tam Alenka našla. V knize čtenář navíc najde v češtině dosud nepublikované básně, kterými v originále oba díly začínají a končí, společně s Carrollovými vánočními a velikonočními pozdravy ve formě dopisů dětským čtenářům, které doprovázely některá pozdější vydání. Alenka se ocitne v záhadné říši divů, podivuhodném světě, jehož prazvláštní obyvatelé se povětšinou chovají velmi iracionálně. Tyto roztodivné postavy ji zaplétají do fantazijních situací, jimiž se Alenka nenechá vyvést z rovnováhy a vždy na ně odpovídá s neústupnou logikou. Díky své dětské naivitě poukazuje na absurdnosti světa, a současně tím poukazuje na jedinečnost a pravdivost dětského vnímání. To je také důvodem, proč je tato kniha odedávna označována za literární klasiku, která nikdy nezestárne.
Kniha anglického profesora matematiky C. L. Dodgsona o holčičce, která králičí dírou sklouzla do podzemního pohádkového kraje a o dalších dobrodružstvích děvčátka v obráceném světě za zrcadlem.

After Alice

From the multi-million-copy bestselling author of Wicked comes a magical new twist on Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, published to coincide with the 150th anniversary of Lewis’s Carroll’s beloved classic. When Alice toppled down the rabbit-hole 150 years ago, she found a Wonderland as rife with inconsistent rules and abrasive egos as the world she left behind. But what of that world? How did 1860s Oxford react to Alice’s disappearance? In this brilliant work of fiction, Gregory Maguire turns his dazzling imagination to the question of underworlds, undergrounds, underpinnings—and understandings old and new, offering an inventive spin on Carroll’s enduring tale. Ada, a friend of Alice’s mentioned briefly in Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, is off to visit her friend, but arrives a moment too late—and tumbles down the rabbit-hole herself. Ada brings to Wonderland her own imperfect apprehension of cause and effect as she embarks on an odyssey to find Alice and see her safely home from this surreal world below the world. If Eurydice can ever be returned to the arms of Orpheus, or Lazarus can be raised from the tomb, perhaps Alice can be returned to life. Either way, everything that happens next is “After Alice.”
Alenka v říši divů je dílo anglického matematika a logika Lewise Carrolla, který ji údajně napsal pro malou holčičku Alici Liddellovou. Dílu se dostalo vědecké interpretace a bylo označeno za mimořádné. Sama hlavní postava, neustále ohromená Alenka v bezděčných reakcích na imaginativní svět plný podivuhodných věcí a událostí, Carrollův um logicky svázat absurdum světa v celé šíři a líčená přirozenost i znalost dětského chování, zaručili dílu světové uznání a přerod v klasiku. Toto vydání obsahuje tzv. přívazek. Jsou to totiž dvě knihy v jedné vazbě (136 str. a 154 str.) a původně zřejmě měly vycházet zvlášť.
Slavná báseň světově proslulého autora, napsaná přibližně v roce 1874 a poprvé publikovaná o dva roky později. Ve skladbě o osmi kapitolách zachycuje autor téměř dobrodružnou výpravu poněkud nesourodé skupiny, jejímž cílem je ulovit podivuhodnou bytost jménem Snárk. Kdo se však pod tímto označením skrývá, není v Carrollově nevelkém eposu blíže specifikováno a není to ani příliš důležité. Snárka totiž lze chápat jako pojem, charakterizující věčně unikající, marnou a nenaplněnou touhu po dosažení úspěchu či dokonalosti. Že je to cíl mnohdy vzdálený, dokumentuje v autorově pojetí i snaha kuriózní jednotky honců, reprezentované "živočichy", mezi něž například patří zvonař, pekař, bobr, právník či bankéř. Ti všichni vědí, že "Snárk je tvor zvláštní; vážení, vznešení, / není jak jiná zvěř lovná. / Zkusme naň umná i neumná řešení: / šance je každá dnes rovná!" Místo Snárka však tato skupina nakonec objeví Boťoucha, tvora symbolizujícího zklamání a klam.

In 1864, Lewis Carroll sent Alice’s Adventures Under Ground , a handwritten and illustrated manuscript, as a gift to Alice Liddell, the daughter of his Oxford dean. This formed the basis for Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland —introducing timeless characters such as Alice, the White Rabbit, the Queen of Hearts, and the Gryphon—although it differs considerably from the later work, with the author himself approving its publication in 1886. Alice’s Adventures Under Ground provides an enchanting glimpse into Carroll’s imaginative process, and deserves to be ranked as a classic for all ages in its own right.

Charles L. Dodgson was a Mathematical Lecturer at Oxford, better known as Lewis Carroll. This collection of mathematical puzzles was compiled in 1893, following years of insomnia. Dodgson claimed to have solved every puzzle, without pencil and paper, during his sleepness nights. This incredible feat is difficult to comprehend, even for such a genius. The complexity and good humor of the problems and tales are suggestive of his well-loved "Alice in Wonderland". Dodgson also hints at his pioneering the field of symbolic logic
Now more than one hundred years after Lewis Carroll’s immortal "Through the Looking-Glass" was published, lovers of the "Alice" books have a new episode written by Carroll in which Alice meets an aged, bad-tempered wasp who wears a yellow wig. The episode, which was originally intended to follow the White Knight sequence in Chapter VIII, is rich in Carrollian humor, nonsense, and wordplay; and it contains a five-stanza poem referencing the yellow wig. According to Martin Gardner, the discovery and publication of "The Wasp in a Wig" is an event of great significance not only for Carrollians but for anyone interested in language, humor, the adventures of Alice or, for that matter, wasps.
