Summary
When Alice steps through a mirror, she enters a reflection of her world where backwards is forwards, the future is remembered, and only the opposite of logic makes sense. Increasingly befuddled, she’s challenged by the belligerent Humpty Dumpty, Tweedledum and Tweedledee, the nonsense rhymes of the Jabberwocky, and the discovery that she’s a pawn in a living game of chess. To become queen and find her way home, Alice must play.
A masterpiece of the absurd, Lewis Carroll’s sequel to Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland continues to inspire artists, filmmakers, musicians, and writers after all these years.
Revised edition: Previously published as Through the Looking-Glass, this edition of Through the Looking-Glass (AmazonClassics Edition) includes editorial revisions.

Lovely narration
I already know that this is one of my favourite ever books, but it is great to find an imaginative narration on Audible too, with a suitably pompous RP voice. Brilliant! We listened on the way back from Cornwall on a busy bank holiday and it had us in stitches.

Alice in Wonderland
Possibly my favourite all time work of fiction, as it conjures up so many childhood memories & was possibly the first book I read as a child. ( I believe I saved tokens from a breakfast cereal box, for which I received a paperback copy of Alice in wonderland & through the looking glass with illustrations by John Tenniel )
It's one of our chief works of literature, and very enduring. Also (this is very important) it's worth remembering that neither this book or its sequel have been rendered a decent service by the film industry, so the true magic & innocence of the book have never been truly captured on film (if it ever a can).
Regardless of age, give this book a listen. Michael Page performs adequately as narrator.
