The Story of Alice: Lewis Carroll and the Secret History of Wonderland

This title was shortlisted for the 2015 Costa Biography Award. This is the secret story of Alice`s Adventures in Wonderland. Wonderland is part of our cultural heritage. But beneath the fairy tale lies the complex history of the author and his subject. Charles Dodgson was a quiet academic but his second self, Lewis Carroll, was a storyteller, innovator and avid collector of `child-friends`. Carroll`s imagination was to give Alice Liddell, his `dream-child`, a fictional alter ego that would never let her grow up. This is a biography that beautifully unravels the magic of Alice. It is a history of love and loss, innocence and ambiguity. It is the story of one man`s need to make a Wonderland in a changing world.
