Description

A third ALICE book is impossible. Yet here it is. On 27 June 1863, a page was intentionally snipped from the diary of LEWIS CARROLL, world-famous author of ALICE'S ADVENTURES IN WONDERLAND. The missing page, why it was destroyed, and what it was hiding has never been properly explained. Until now. Alice’s Adventures in the Topsy-Turvy Time is a lost continuation of Alice’s journeys, from scattered materials and private writings. Within its pages, Alice comes into possession of a peculiar device, part clock and part camera, through which she moves backward and forward in time. Returning to Wonderland and the Looking-Glass world, she finds them altered. Familiar scenes misaligned. Conversations sharpened. Something hidden just beneath their playful surface. Moving forward, she encounters imagined futures shaped by a Victorian mind, visions of progress that reveal as much as they conceal. As the narrative fractures across time, it circles a single absence: the missing day in 1863. What happened, what was seen, and why it was never recorded. What begins as a literary curiosity becomes something more unsettling. The boundary between invention and recovery begins to blur. The story resists completion. And the question remains: Was this book ever meant to be found, or never written at all.
