This commemorative oversized volume of the complete collection of stories and poems of Lewis Carol showcases his ingenious use of word play, inverted logic and satire. Lewis Carroll was the pen name and, it could be claimed, the alter ego of the Reverend Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, a mathematician, writer and photographer. His creations, especially Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There , have been translated into countless languages and are as loved now as they have ever been. His neologisms ("curiouser and curiouser") and turns of phrase have forever infiltrated and enriched our language and culture.

The Reverend Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, better known by the pen name Lewis Carroll, was an English author, mathematician, logician, Anglican clergyman and photographer.

His most famous writings are Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and its sequel Through the Looking-Glass as well as the poems "The Hunting of the Snark" and "Jabberwocky", all considered to be within the genre of literary nonsense.

Oxford scholar, Church of England Deacon, University Lecturer in Mathematics and Logic, academic author of learned theses, gifted pioneer of portrait photography, colourful writer of imaginative genius and yet a shy and pedantic man, Lewis Carroll stands pre-eminent in the pantheon of inventive literary geniuses.

He also has works published under his real name.

So far, I truly love this!

It has become a precious possession for me. I have this special habit of saving it specifically for those rainy days.

On such gloomy and wet days, when the raindrops are gently tapping on the windowpanes, I would cozy up in a comfortable corner, with a warm cup of coffee beside me.

Then, I would take out this wonderful thing and start reading.

The words seem to come alive in the midst of the rainy atmosphere, transporting me to different worlds and experiences.

It's like a magical escape from the dullness of the rainy day, bringing me joy, inspiration, and a sense of tranquility.

I look forward to those rainy days just so that I can have this wonderful reading time with it.

They teach me about love, friendship, courage, and perseverance.

I love how they can transport me to different worlds and make me feel a range of emotions.

I am still reading at my slow pace between other works.

Reading has always been a great source of joy and knowledge for me. Despite the busyness of my daily life, I manage to squeeze in some reading time whenever I can.

I find that reading helps me relax and unwind, while also expanding my vocabulary and improving my cognitive skills.

Although I may not be able to read as quickly as some people, I take my time to savor each word and sentence, truly understanding the author's message.

It doesn't matter how long it takes me to finish a book, as long as I am enjoying the process and learning something new along the way.

So, I will continue to read at my own pace, grateful for the opportunity to explore different worlds and ideas through the written word.

Puns are a wonderful and abundant form of wordplay that can add humor, depth, and creativity to our language.

They play on the multiple meanings of words, creating a clever and often unexpected connection.

For example, the phrase "I used to be a baker, but I couldn't make enough dough" is a pun that uses the double meaning of "dough" as both money and the mixture used to make bread.

Puns can be found in literature, advertising, jokes, and everyday conversations.

They have the power to make us laugh, think, and appreciate the flexibility and richness of language.

Whether it's a simple play on words or a more complex and elaborate construction, puns are a great way to add some fun and sparkle to our communication.

So, the next time you come across a pun, take a moment to appreciate its cleverness and enjoy the smile it brings to your face.

I will always be reading this over and over and over.

It's as if these words have a magical hold on me, pulling me in with each repetition.

Maybe it's the beauty of the language, or the profound meaning hidden within.

Whatever it is, I can't seem to break free from its charm.

I find myself lost in the words, imagining different scenarios and interpretations.

Each time I read it, I discover something new, something that I might have missed before.

It's like a never-ending journey of exploration and discovery.

I don't know how long this will last, but for now, I'm content to keep reading, over and over and over again.
