'Contrariwise ... if it was so, it might be; and if it were so, it would be but as it isn't, it ain't. That's logic.'

'I had sent my heroine straight down a rabbit-hole ... without the least idea what was to happen afterwards,' wrote Lewis Carroll, describing how Alice was conjured up one 'golden afternoon' in 1862 to entertain his child-friend Alice Liddell. His dream worlds of nonsensical Wonderland and the back-to-front Looking-Glass kingdom depict order turned upside-down: a baby turns into a pig, time is abandoned at a disordered tea-party and a chaotic game of chess makes a seven-year-old girl a Queen. But amongst the anarchic humour and sparkling word play, puzzles and riddles, are poignant moments of nostalgia for lost childhood. Original and experimental, the Alice books give readers a window on both child and adult worlds.

La Realidad está sobrevalorada (o al menos a mi me tiene harta)

No voy a explicar la trama porque imagino que todos lo conocen. Me hizo pensar curiosamente en varias películas de Hitchcock, muy influenciadas por el psicoanálisis. Aunque es previo al psicoanálisis 🤷‍♀️. En mi opinión, vemos a Alicia crecer, madurar, volverse independiente y crítica con la realidad que no entiende. Se está creando su propia identidad y cambia tan rápido que a veces ya no sabe quien es.

¿Se sabe si Carroll consumía drogas? Porque tanto comer setas de efectos misteriosos en el relato, me provoca ciertas sospechas.

Existen numerosas ediciones con ilustraciones bellísimas, pero hay otras alternativas. Audio en "Cuentos y relatos" dura algo más de tres horas o leerlo en "La Nebulosa ecléctica". Pd: Me busco ya una madriguera donde colarme. O un buen libro, lo que encuentre antes.
