- Description
- 73 pages : portrait; 23 cm.
- Summary
- "These evocative poems move from the icon of Alice in Wonderland to the imagined figure of Alice out of Wonderland on a West Coast beach, underground with Persephone, in Memphis with Elvis. They also explore the life of the real Alice Liddell (1852-1934) who sat for Charles Dodgson's camera and inspired the Alice books which prompted his rise to fame as Lewis Carroll."--Jacket.
