Karoline Leach Libri
|
A revolutionary and much-acclaimed study of the work and motives of the Alice In Wonderland author This is the most significant biographical work on the author of Alice In Wonderland to be published in recent years, and this new edition marks the 150th anniversary of the publication ofAlice's Adventures in Wonderland. Karoline Leachs study contends that Carroll was far from being emotionallyand sexuallyobsessed with female children and his "muse" Alice Liddell. She tells the strange story of how the false image of Carroll came into being and how he adoredand was adored bywomen of all ages and enjoyed adult relationships that woud have scandalized the Victorian age in which he lived. The author gained access to unpublished evidence from the family archive, as well as letters and diaries, that led her to uncover Carrolls secret passion for another member of "Alices" family.In The Shadow of The Dreamchild is a radical re-evaluation of the life and work of one of Englands most mysterious literary figures, and the revised edition expands on Leachs important research. |
