PUBLISHER: Amaranthine Books EDITION: Special Imported Limited Edition PRICE: $599.00 Amaranthine Books is back with a brand new special edition that is unlike anything we ve ever owned, and we re pleased to report we re getting some copies to offer for our customers! This is the Jabberwock Edition of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There, both stories told in a beautiful numbered deluxe edition limited to just 260 copies.

This surprise is placed there since the two sequels are fused into one book, each beginning on one cover and ending in the middle. This is also a small tribute to the Looking-Glass world, so it seemed fitting for this edition. Another thing that heavily influenced the creative concept was the writer’s love for math and logic (and not psychedelics like many seem to think), which he loved to bend, twist and break in his writing. That was channeled through the use of optical illusion
