Beskrivelse

From the multi-million-copy bestselling author of Wicked comes a magical new twist on Lewis Carrolls beloved classic,Alices Adventures in Wonderland.When Alice toppled down the rabbit-hole 150 years ago, she found a Wonderland as rife with inconsistent rules and abrasive egos as the world she left behind. But what of that world? How did 1860s Oxford react to Alices disappearance?In After Alice, Gregory Maguire turns his dazzling imagination to the question of underworlds, undergrounds, underpinningsand understandings old and new, offering an inventive spin on Carrolls enduring tale. Ada, a friend of Alices mentioned briefly in Alices Adventures in Wonderland, is off to visit her friend, but arrives a moment too lateand tumbles down the rabbit-hole herself.Ada brings to Wonderland her own imperfect apprehension of cause and effect as she embarks on an odyssey to find Alice and see her safely home from this surreal world below the world. If Eurydice can ever be returned to the arms of Orpheus, or Lazarus can be raised from the tomb, perhaps Alice can be returned to life. Either way, everything that happens next is After Alice.
