This perennially popular Norton Critical Edition again reprints the 1897 editions of Alice 's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass along with the 1876 edition of The Hunting of the Snark. Each text is fully annotated and the original illustrations are included. An unusually rich Backgrounds section is arranged to correspond with three clearly defined periods in Lewis Carroll 's life. Letters and diary entries interwoven within each period emphasize the biographical dimension of Carroll 's writing. Readers gain an understanding of the author 's family and education, the evolution of the Alice books, and Carroll 's later years through his own words and through important scholarly work on his faith life and his relationships with women and with Alice Hargreaves and her family.

Two early pieces an essay by Charles Dickens and poem by Christina Rossetti take a satirical look at children 's literature. The nine new recent essays are by James R. Kincaid, Marah Gubar, Robert M. Polemus, Jean-Jacques Lecercle, Gilles Deleuze, Roger Taylor, Carol Mavor, Jean Gatt gno, and Helena M. Pycior. The Selected Bibliography has been updated and expanded.
