This book was my first ever DNF. I read Alice in Wonderland and Alice Through the Looking Glass, but couldn't do Sylvie and Bruno. It was utterly bizarre in a world of expected bizarre. I just couldn't do all the jumping around. I enjoyed a lot of the poetry, but not all of it was great and I skipped around through the last of the collection as well. I guess I like structure and discernible plots more than I thought!

یه نسخه کامل و با توضیحاتی که واقعا ضروری بودن برای فهمیدن اهمیت داستانهای الیس.
مقدمه مفصلی داره که خوب یه کم خوندنش به انگلیسی برام سخت بود. اما خیلی به لوئیس کارول علاقه مندم کرد یا وجود حرفهایی که اطرافش هست.
اولین کتابی بود که ازش یادداشت برداری کردم و برام ارزشمنده.
در مورد خود کتاب هم واقعا چیزی نمیشه گفت توی یه ریویو، وقتی همین کتاب انقدر در موردش نوشته.
در کل یکی از داستانهای خیلی محبوبم. هر چند که به ناخوشایندی خوابهای خودمه گاهی، اما همین ناخوشایندی خوابها هم برام لذت بخشن.

Read after watching Alice Through The Looking Glass film. I think I had read Alice in Wonderland before but not the whole compilation. Through the Looking Glass is very different story to the film but I think the first film used some of the stories - eg painting roses, chessboard etc. Tweedle Dee & Tweedle Dum don't actually feature in first book. I much preferred Through the Looking Glass as a book - some wonderful wordplay, lyricism and imagery. Whimsical and enjoyable. Definitely recommend reading with John Tenniel's illustrations.
