Written by an Oxford don, a clergyman, and a professional mathematician, they abound in characters—the White Knight, the Red Queen, the Mad Hatter, Humpty Dumpty—who are part of everybody’s mental furniture. And the philosophic profundity of scores, if not hundreds, of these characters’ observations, long household words wherever English is spoken, gains mightily from the delicious fantasy of their setting.”· Language: English· Binding: Hardcover; secureo Cloth· Size: ~ 7.25in X 5.25in (18.5cm x 13.5cm) Our Guarantee:Very Fast.
