A Shadow for Alice

In this latest and, arguably, best sequel to Alice in Wonderland since Through the Looking-Glass, the reader travels with a new Alice on a sly roller coaster ride across a logically flipped world down to her final surprise. Studded with poetry, chit-chat, and improbable creatures―from the oversized, lovesick Caterpillar to the dazed Doctor on safari ―this tale is more than a hat-tip to Lewis Carroll's classic. It is also a marvelous, fire-cracker string of new adventures. Where is the broken road taking her? Will our Alice ever find her lost shadow? And what dreams will she bring back home again when she returns?
