Sobre este artículo
London: Macmillan and Co, 1876. First Edition. Discreet blindstamp of a London bookshop on front endpaper; 1876 gift inscription; title page faintly offset from frontispiece tissue, as usual; covers a bit soiled and rubbed at extremities.. 8vo, 83pp; original pictorial cream cloth, a.e.g., coated black endpapers. A presentable copy of Carroll's great nonsense poem, distinguished by the presence of the rare pamphlet "An Easter Greeting to Every Child Who Loves 'Alice'" tipped to the front endpaper.
Sinopsis
If-and the thing is wildly possible-the charge of writing nonsense were ever brought against the author of this brief but instructive poem, it would be based, I feel convinced, on the line (in p.4)
