In which a dignified assembly grapples with the confounding cries of the populace and the curious machinations of governance, attended by the charming antics of children and the lively discourse of learned Professors. Amidst misunderstandings and whispered urgencies, the evening unfolds with gentle reprimands and the quiet joys of a birthday, painting a quaint picture of order and mild commotion.

Sylvie and Bruno Chapter 3 - Birthday-Presents.

Welcome, dear Listener - pray step quietly, for the shelves are dozing. You have found The Lewis Carroll Library: a most respectable collection of unrespectable tales, where words may walk backwards, time may forget its manners, and a sentence will occasionally tumble headlong into a pun. Here we read the books entire - every chapter, every curiosity - turning pages as one might turn a looking-glass: expecting, at any moment, to find the world on the other side behaving rather differently. So settle comfortably, keep a corner of your imagination unbuttoned, and - if you happen to see a White Rabbit hurrying past - do try to listen faster.
