Lewis Carroll 2 hr 11 min read

Chasing a waistcoated White Rabbit down a hole, a curious girl tumbles into a nonsensical wonderland of mad tea-parties, hookah-smoking caterpillars, and a temperamental Queen of Hearts.

This is Lewis Carroll's 1865 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland' in Esperanto, one of the supreme treasures of children's literature. Witty, surreal, endlessly inventive. Read it for the immortal dream-logic classic that redefined the fairy tale, in the international language.
