Description: Lewis Carroll's Alice Through the Looking Glass Pennyroyal Edition designed and illustrated by Barry Moser (SIGNED large-format hardcover)In this edition of the Pennyroyal Press 'Through the Looking-glass, and What Alice Found there' the literary invention of Lewis Carroll meets its match in the wood engraver Barry Moser's startling illustrations, the creations of what Joyce Carol Oates called "an imagination as rich, undulating, and unfathomable, it seems, as Dodgson's."Much as Carroll's fantasy delights in the reversal of everyday perception, these illustrations avoid the familiar and the expected, to evoke from the reader Alice's own responses to the frightful Jabberwocky, the Red Queen, Tweedledum and Tweedledee, Humpty Dumpty, the White Knight, and the rest of the chess game through which Alice moves toward becoming a queen herself - and a real-world adult. Barry Moser, one of the foremost wood engravers in the US, is the proprietor of the Pennyroyal Press in West Hatfield, Massachusetts.Vintage Large-Format Hardcover / 14" x 9" / University of California Press / 1983 / Very Good Condition / Signed by Barry Moser
