Curiouser and curiouser!
— Lewis Carroll
Mathematician and logician by trade, Charles Dodgson wrote as Lewis Carroll with a precision that made his nonsense feel governed by hidden rules. 'Alice in Wonderland' reads like logic pushed past its breaking point, narrated in a child's plain, curious voice. The result is absurdity that never once feels sloppy.
