For over 125 years John Tenniel's superb illustrations for Alice's Adventures in Wonderland have been the perfect complement to Lewis Carroll's timeless story.
This edition is a wonderful high-quality version, the first to reproduce Tenniel's exquisite drawings from prints taken directly from the original wood engravings. Here, Tenniel's fine line work is far crisper, delicate shadings are reproduced with more subtlety, and details never seen before are now visible.
This is a deluxe gift edition with clearer, more detailed images than have ever been seen before. At last, readers can see the Alice that Carroll and Tenniel had originally envisioned.
When Alice follows the White Rabbit down his rabbit hole she embarks on the adventure of a lifetime. As she travels through Wonderland Alice learns that in the magical land of the Cheshire Cat, the Mad Hatter, and the Queen of Hearts, nothing is as it first appears. --https://www.harpercollins.com/9780688110871/alices-adventures-in-wonderland/
Review of 'Alice No Pais Das Maravilhas - Limited Edition' on 'Goodreads'

As duas Alices são meus livros favoritos, daqueles de colecionar múltiplas edições.
Finalmente consegui esta edição limitada da DarkSide, que inclui uma ótima tradução adaptada e atualizada, ilustrações inéditas da Mika Takahashi, textos de apoio, fotografias tiradas por Lewis Carroll da Alice real, a tradução de "Phantasmagoria", um poema de Carroll, e ainda a reprodução de páginas de "Alice's adventure under ground" a primeira versão escrita da história, presente para a Alice real.
É justamente aqui a minha crítica desta edição. Entendo que talvez as reproduções são apenas uma curiosidade a mais e não havia interesse em reproduzir todo o manuscrito. Mas as páginas podiam ter sido organizadas na ordem correta da história.
De qualquer forma, é uma das melhores edições de Alice da minha coleção.

I don't like this book. There, I said it. Anna Bond's illustrations are AMAZING, but I continue to not care about this story. Which is funny, because I truly enjoy bad (and good) puns.

One thing I think Lewis Carroll did right in Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland was the way he wrote a book suitable for kids and still enjoyable for adults. The characters in the book are so amazing that you can’t help but fall in love with them. Stand out characters for me included the philosophical Cheshire Cat and the melancholy Mock Turtle. The whole story was witty and full of amusing puns and is considered one of the best examples of literary nonsense. Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland overall is an enjoyable, well written and constructed tale and a surprisingly enjoyable book to read. I could possibly go on about the philosophy, the homages, or even the reflects to English society in the 19th century; but I will leave all that for the comments below. Read the book, enjoy the book and discuses the book. I really think this is one of …
