Lewis Carroll gave the world perhaps the most iconic children’s books of all time with ALICE’S ADVENTURES IN WONDERLAND and THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS, but his legacy has become shrouded by controversy by modern scholars. In episode 309, join Luke & James as they follow the White Rabbit into a magical world, play logic and word games, appreciate puns, and get into some of the evidence surrounding the hotly-debated nature of the author’s relationship to Alice Liddell & her sisters. Join them next week when they compare the books to the Disney adaptation!
