Lewis Carroll (Critical Survey of Poetry)
Other Literary Forms
Lewis Carroll is remembered for his long fiction, the children’s classics Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland (1865) and Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There (1871). Immediate popular and critical successes, they are now among the world’s most quoted and translated books, enjoyed by children and adults alike, and their characters are part of the world’s folklore. His sentimental and tendentious Sylvie and Bruno (1889) and Sylvie and Bruno Concluded (1893) were far less successful.
