If you enjoyed Tim Burton's dark depiction of Alice in Wonderland, then you will thoroughly enjoy this short play that depicts a similarly unusual take on the classic tale. While the original Alice's Adventures in Wonderland was written by Lewis Carroll, this adaptation was scripted by the mysterious S. S. B. This version of Alice in Wonderland features familiar characters. The titular Alice is a young girl who accidentally journeys to a mysterious land that exceeds even the far reaches of her imagination. There, she meets an array of unusual figures. Other characters include the prim and proper March Hare, who anxiously reminds others of the rules they must live by; the Mad Hatter, who reminds others to break those rules and think outside the boxes society might place around them; and the Queen of Hearts, who somewhat villainously puts Alice and everyone else in their place. As with any version of Alice in Wonderland, the reader must suspend their disbelief to thoroughly enjoy this story. It is after all, a fanciful depiction of a young girl's wildest imaginings and perhaps her greatest fears. As Carroll wrote: "Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast." Of course, readers will thoroughly enjoy this text at any time of day.

The Hunting of the Snark (1876) is a poem by Lewis Carroll. Filled with many of the portmanteau words developed for his poem “Jabberwocky,” The Hunting of the Snark is a delightfully strange tale of mystery and adventure. Often read as an allegory for everything from tuberculosis to the endless quest for happiness itself, The Hunting of the Snark, much like the Snark itself, refuses all description. “‘Just the place for a Snark!’ the Bellman cried, / As he landed his crew with care; / Supporting each man on the top of the tide / By a finger entwined in his hair.” Driven more by rhyme than reason, the adventure opens in medias res, introducing its varied crew of men and beasts of questionable use: a Boots, a Barrister, a Broker, a maker of Bonnets and Hoods, a Billiard-maker, a Banker, and, of course, a Beaver. Sailors all, they sail into the unknown. The Snark they search for may not be a Snark, could be a Boojum, and may very well be deadly. Intrepid and wisely foolish, they set out to comb the island for the Snark, armed with tricks and bribes, “smiles and soap,” and all the other instruments of hope. Playful and strange, the Snark eludes us all. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Lewis Carroll’s The Hunting of the Snark is a classic work of English literature reimagined for modern readers.

Alice, the child protagonist of Lewis Carroll's Alice's adventures in Wonderland, follows a hurried rabbit into it's hole and winds up in Wonderland. Encountering a peculiar cast of characters, she becomes quite artful in her interactions with these new "mad" friends; modulating her intake of elixirs and substances in an attempt to play her part correctly. Is it real? A magical realm made specifically for her or just a bored young girl's imagination run wild one afternoon. A classic tale visualized in a modern tone with 42 new illustrations.
