from Sylvie and Bruno · host Lewis Carroll
Dive into the enchanting world of Sylvie and Bruno, Lewis Carrolls final novel published during his lifetime, first released in 1889 with a sequel in 1893. Accompanied by the whimsical illustrations of Harry Furniss, this unique tale intertwines two captivating narratives one grounded in the realities of Victorian Britain and the other steeped in the fantastical realms of Fairyland. While the fantasy plot delights with its nonsensical elements and poetry reminiscent of Carrolls beloved Alice stories, the Victorian storyline engages readers in thoughtful discussions on religion, society, philosophy, and morality. Join us as we explore this remarkable blend of social commentary and whimsical storytelling.
