Sleep With History

Lewis Carroll and The Writing of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1865)


Listen Later

In the hushed depth of night, we delve into the whimsical yet sharply satirical world of Alices Adventures in Wonderland, where the ordinary rules of society and logic slip away into the shadows of Lewis Carrolls imagination. Here, in the company of the Mad Hatter and the mercurial Queen of Hearts, we find ourselves at a tea party that defies time, a metaphorical gathering that mirrors the rigid absurdity of Victorian social customs. As we wander further, encountering nonsensical poetry and elusive cats discussing existence, our senses are awakened to the playful subversion of language and narrative norms. Let us drift into this dreamscape where every inch of Wonderland invites us to question the fabric of reality, gently nudging us towards the boundaries of sleep where fantasies blend with the stars.
