    Alice im Wunderland ist ein erstmals 1865 erschienenes Kinderbuch des britischen Schriftstellers Lewis Carroll. Alice im Wunderland gilt als eines der hervorragenden Werke aus dem Genre des literarischen Nonsens.
    Während ihre Schwester ihr aus einem Buch vorliest, sieht die Titelheldin Alice ein sprechendes, weißes Kaninchen, das auf eine Uhr starrt und meint, es komme zu spät. Neugierig folgt Alice ihm in seinen Bau. Dort fällt sie weit hinunter und landet in einem Raum mit vielen Türen. Nach einiger Zeit findet sie einen Schlüssel, mit dem sie die kleinste Tür aufsperren kann. Sie öffnet diese, schafft es allerdings nicht hindurch, weil sie zu groß ist. Kurz darauf findet sie ein Fläschchen mit einem Trunk, der sie kleiner macht. Aber dann ist die Tür, als sie klein genug ist, wieder zu. Aus diesem Grund entsteht ein Chaos, bis Alice letztlich klein genug ist und ins Wunderland, das von Paradoxa und Absurditäten nur so strotzt, hineingehen kann. 
                                                                                                                                  ***
    The Alice in Wonderland is the immortal book of the English writer Lewis Carroll. This is a fairy tale that has been admiring adults and children of the whole world for a century and a half.
    Alice fearlessly jumps into the rabbit mink and gets into an unusual country, where the situation and the girl herself change every minute.
    The Sea Bull in this country sings songs, and Rabbit wears a watch like a real English gentleman. Alice guesses absurd riddles and is honored to play a game of croquet with the Queen.
    Had it all happened in reality or was it only a magical dream that had slipped on the dozing Alice?
