Summary
"Part of Alice's perennial appeal is her characteristic ambiguity, which makes possible a range of interpretation in adapting Lewis Carroll's classic Wonderland stories to various media. This book explores today's multi-media journey to Wonderland, focusing on the cultural and ethical stakes of our imaginative experience making sense of nonsense"--
