Description
First Edition, Publishers' Original Binding, With Dustwrapper
The first edition of this fascinating study of the works by Lewis Carroll. By Alexander Taylor.
A thorough study of the noted author's quirky writing techniques; looking at the possible meanings behind the author's favoured usage of the nonsense genre and the influences on his writing.
With an examination of Carroll's love for Alice Liddell, the daughter of his proud and aristocratic dean, and the impossibility of their romance.
