'I had sent my heroine straight down a rabbit-hole without the least idea what was to happen afterwards,' wrote Dodgson, describing how Alice was conjured up one 'golden afternoon' in 1862 to entertain his child-friend Alice Liddell. In the nonsensical Wonderland and the back-to-front Looking-Glass kingdom, order is turned upside-down: a baby turns into a pig; time is abandoned at a tea-party; and a chaotic game of chess makes a 7-year-old a Queen.

Neu übersetzt und mit zahlreichen Illustrationen präsentiert sich Alices Abenteuer im Land hinter den Spiegeln. Diese Ausgabe von Nadine Erler lässt die englischen Eigennamen unverändert, was den Charme der Erzählung unterstreicht. Die skurrilen Figuren und Wortspiele Carrols sorgen für Absurdität und Vergnügen. Ein Klassiker der Nonsensliteratur.
Auch das Spiegelland steckt voller Wunder. Nach seiner großartigen Alice im Wunderland aus dem vorigen Jahr erscheint jetzt Benjamin Lacombes zweiter Alice-Band, ein ebenso prächtig ausgestatteter Band wie der erste. Mit Alice hat Benjamin Lacombe sein großes Thema gefunden. Sechs Jahre nach Alice in Wonderland, im Jahre 1871, veröffentlichte Lewis Carroll sein zweites Alice-Buch, Through the Looking Glass. Das Buch war von Beginn an ein Bestseller, und Gestalten aus ihm, wie Tweedledum & Tweedeldee (Dideldum und Dideldei), Humpty Dumpty (Plumpsti Bumsti) und die Weiße und die Schwarze Königin sind kanonische Gestalten der Weltliteratur geworden. Textgrundlage unseres Buchs ist die behutsam modernisierte klassische Übersetzung von Helene Scheu-Riesz aus dem Jahre 1923.
