About this audiobook
"Alice in Wonderland" by Lewis Carroll (originally "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland") is an immortal masterpiece of world literature that has made a revolution in the children's prose and has become a cult text for readers of all ages. Written by a professor of mathematics under a pseudonym, this story has turned into a great triumph of absurdity, paradoxical logic and pure fantasy, where the usual laws of physics and healthy sense do not work. The story begins in a hot summer day when a little and curious Alice, missing on the river coast, notices an incredible scene - the White Rabbit in the hook and with pocket clocks. Following him in the pursuit, the girl quickly falls into a deep rabbit and finds herself in the fantasy-smagory subterranean world. Here she has to grow to the size of the house, then to decrease to small proportions, as well as to get acquainted with the most excentric inhabitants of Wonderland. On his way, Alice encounters an unbeatable Cheshire Cat with his famous smile, the mad company of the Slipper and the Marty Rabbit on an infinite drink of tea, philosophizing Gusennica on the fungus, and finally the flushing Red Queen, which just demands to cut someone's head. Every meeting is turned for a girl with a series of vocal columbers, linguistic hips and philosophical headsets. Carroll has managed to create a unique space that children perceive as a bright, fun adventure, and adults as a deep satirical and mathematical study of human language and thought. This is a surprising, endlessly charming book that learns to look wider into the world, not to be afraid of stupidities and to remember that the most incredible miracles are often hidden in our own fantasy. **About what the book in three words:** Dream, Absurd, Madness. **Who to read:** Children for the development of imagination, adults for the return to the world of pure children's logic, as well as all the lovers of fine English humor, word play and quality literary nonsense.
