  Alice's Adventures in Wonderland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is a work of children's literature by the British mathematician and author Reverend Charles Lutwidge Dodgson under the pseudonym Lewis Carroll.
In 1865, Dodgson's tale was published as Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by "Lewis Carroll" with illustrations by John Tenniel.
By this perspective, at its essence, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is not a dream but a surreal nightmare involving loss of control, inability to communicate or reason, rampant uncontrolled change of one's self and everything around, and a total inability to gain any foundation in the world.

 Alice’s Adventures In Wonderland (Chapter Outlines)
Alice’s Adventures In Wonderland is an effective as a work of fantasy: Alice’s frequent metamorphoses, strange beings such as the pack of cards, the Cheshire Cat, the Gryphon.
A key to the effect is Carroll’s steady tone, which never doubts the events that befalls Alice, and maintains a playful stance toward the absurd utterances and situations with which Alice must deal.
Life in wonderland consists of one absurd situation after another, and the Alice’s efforts to understand her situation is only frustrated by language, as the other characters bog her in down in strange language-games, or make her recite verse as proof of her confessed confusion.

And the Gryphon added `Come, let's hear some of YOUR adventures.' `I could tell you my adventures--beginning from this morning,' said Alice a little timidly: `but it's no use going back to yesterday, because I was a different person then.' `Explain all that,' said the Mock Turtle.
`No, no! The adventures first,' said the Gryphon in an impatient tone: `explanations take such a dreadful time.' So Alice began telling them her adventures from the time when she first saw the White Rabbit.
She was a little nervous about it just at first, the two creatures got so close to her, one on each side, and opened their eyes and mouths so VERY wide, but she gained courage as she went on.
