BOOK REVIEW " Through The Looking glass" by Lewis Carrol

M atha (30802200020) 5/L2


"In a Wonderland they lie, Dreaming as the days go by..." is a quote that describes the imaginative nuance of Lewis Carroll's novel "Through the Looking-Glass." This book is a fantasy full of riddles and wordplay, aimed at readers who like stories full of mystery.

The story follows Alice as she steps into the world behind a mirror in her living room. There, she becomes part of a strange chess game where she must navigate various obstacles to become a Queen. Alice encounters eccentric characters like Humpty Dumpty and Tweedledum and Tweedledee, each with their own peculiar logic and way of speaking. For me, the story is not just about a fantastical adventure but also about how we perceive ourselves and the world around us. Many parts of the book remind me that sometimes we need to view a problem from a different perspective.

Lewis Carroll wrote this novel with the intention of exploring logic, language, and the concept of identity. Through the Looking-Glass not only offers an adventure story but also invites readers to reflect on the meaning of reality and dreams. For anyone looking for a read that sparks the imagination, this book is a perfect choice.
