Summary
In this whimsical sequel to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Alice once again steps into a fantastical world—this time by climbing through a looking-glass (mirror) into a realm where everything is reversed, from logic to language.
Structured like a giant chess game, the story follows Alice as she moves from pawn to queen across a dreamlike landscape.
Along the way, she encounters eccentric characters like Tweedledum and Tweedledee, the White Queen, the Red King, and Humpty Dumpty.
Time runs backward, poetry defies meaning, and nothing is ever quite what it seems.
With its playful logic, clever wordplay, and philosophical undertones, Through the Looking-Glass is both a fantastical children’s tale and a rich literary work exploring identity, transformation, and the boundaries of imagination.
