I was a photography minor so I studied some about Lewis Carroll and his photographs so I knew all about the rumors about him and Alice (and the pictures are somewhat interesting). I think he's about the only author I've approached from a totally non-literature standpoint. I didn't read Alice in Wonderland until after my photography courses. I'm curious to see what this author has to say on their relationship.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07464480044976775637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5447574405650512339.post-55512671133598621592010-01-28T19:23:08.179-05:002010-01-28T19:23:08.179-05:00I've been wanting to read this book!

I think the author did a great job creating this interesting underlying mood between Alice and Carroll.Suzanne Yesterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00340451897624838384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5447574405650512339.post-73362641133499008012010-01-28T17:38:25.408-05:002010-01-28T17:38:25.408-05:00Hi Cheryl,
