Lewis Carrolls Alice in Wonderland (1865) and Through the Looking Glass (1871) are among the most enduring works in the English language. In the decades following their publication, writers on both sides of the Atlantic produced no fewer than two hundred imitations, revisions, and parodies of Carrolls fantasies for children. Carolyn Sigler has gathered the most interesting and original of these responses to the Alics, many of them long out of print.
Produced between 1869 and 1930, these works trace the extraordinarily creative, and often critical, response of diverse writers. These writers—male and female, radical and conservative—appropriated Carrolls structures, motifs, and themes in their Alice-inspired works in order to engage in larger cultural debates. Their stories range from Christina Rossettis angry subversion of Alices adventures, Speaking Likenesses (1874), to . Farrows witty fantasy adventure, The Wallypug of Why (1895), to Edward Hopes hilarious parody of social and political foibles, Alice in the Delighted States (1928). Anyone who has ever followed Alice down the rabbit hole will enjoy the adventures of her literary siblings in the wide Wonderland of the human imagination.
