Stars: 1
Review by: MandyApgar
A biography of Lewis Carroll told against the history and legacy of his Wonderland creation. I liked it for showing his thought processes and some of the obscure little details in his personality that led him to give certain characters and major plotlines in either of the Alice books (or his other works for that matter). I did not like it for its pretentiousness, dragging on for almost half the book after Carroll had died and saying perhaps 5 pages of any substance, frequently harping on how his preference for the friendship of young girls was harmless and innocent, but going on and on about certain details therein, and just because it was mostly very, very dull.
