Tbh, this story has never been my cup of tea. I was hoping to get more out of the book than any of its adaptations, but it wasn't much better. I guess the only thing to do is embrace the nonsense.

Still one of my very favorite books. Never loses its charms, and the Cheshire Cat remains one of the best characters in fiction.

Like many of my generation, I grew up with the Disney Alice in Wonderland, which was a feather light romp through cartoon conflict. I loved the story even more when as an adult I read Lewis Carroll's actual work, which is dark and feels far too deep for a child (but Alice is like very few other children). I appreciate both (and also the weirdness-steeped adventure tale of Tim Burton's version).
