Publisher's Summary
This fresh and hugely entertaining narration, joined with Lewis Carroll’s surreal genius, results in pure, boundless FUN.
Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass, read by acclaimed comedienne Alison Larkin, brilliantly capture a young girl's feelings about growing up in a nonsensical world. Lewis Carroll's final novel Sylvie and Bruno, read by Audie award-winning narrator Peter Noble, is followed by Carroll's delightful nonsense poem "The Hunting of the Snark". Exclusive to Audible, this recording also includes an excerpt from The Life and Letters of Lewis Carroll, which shows us how the story of Alice first came to be.
Critic Reviews
"Everyone knows Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass. This audio collection adds Sylvie and Bruno and The Hunting of The Snark, the first two narrated by Alison Larkin and the second pair by Peter Noble. Larkin's performances include some interesting sound effects, which emphasize the fantastical nature of the stories. She also uses her remarkable vocal skills to capture the surreal world of Alice. Sylvie and Bruno is sadder, and Noble's reserved treatment suits it well. The Hunting of The Snark is not a novel at all, but a narrative poem, which Noble delivers with appropriate brio. This is a fine collection of Carroll's longer works, worth listening to more than once." (AudioFile)
