A proposito di questo titolo

Welcome, dear Listener - pray step quietly, for the shelves are dozing.

You have found The Lewis Carroll Library: a most respectable collection of unrespectable tales, where words may walk backwards, time may forget its manners, and a sentence will occasionally tumble headlong into a pun. Here we read the books entire - every chapter, every curiosity - turning pages as one might turn a looking-glass: expecting, at any moment, to find the world on the other side behaving rather differently.

So settle comfortably, keep a corner of your imagination unbuttoned, and - if you happen to see a White Rabbit hurrying past - do try to listen faster.Public domain

    In which a kindly Professor prepares for a grand banquet and lecture occasion amidst curious preparations, lively dialogue, and the ever-watchful presence of children Bruno and Sylvie. The scene unfolds delightfully with servants’ medicines, a mysterious cupboard occupant, and a surprising dish of spinach, all artfully setting the stage for the entertainment to come.
