The Complete Works of Lewis Carroll

This large and heavy Modern Library hardcover book is in good condition, with some markings and stains on the page edges, and the dust jacket has some tears at the top (See pictures). The stories included in this book are: - Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland - Through the Looking Glass - Sylvie and Bruno - Sylvie and Bruno Concluded - The Hunting of the Snark - Phantasmagoria - All the early and late verse, short stories, essays, games, puzzles, problems, acrostics and miscellaneous writings - Introduction by Alexander Woollcott, Illustrations by John Tenniel The first dust jacket flap says: - Lewis Carroll, according to Alexander Woolkot, “wrote the most enchanting nonsense in the English language.” And his two most famous works, “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” and “Through the Looking Glass”, have transcended that language to become part of the folklore of the Western world. They are as familiar in France and Germany as in England and the United States. Written for children — and still enthusiastically received by them — they have also proved irresistible to adults. Less well known but very much in the same vein are the shorter pieces, games, puzzles, problems and acrostics included in this volume. Here, indeed, are all the works that that enigmatic, shy, funny, didactic dergyman, Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, wrote under the name of Lewis Carroll… Bundle with other books and save on shipping!
