J.T. Holden and Andrew Johnson. Alice in Verse. The lost Rhymes of Wonderland


Thanks to the long research of the young poet J.T. Holden The Lost Rimes of Wonderland came to life and reanimate of new spirit Carroll's characters. Andrew Johnson's illustrations, all in black and white and made just with a pencil on paper, follow carefully the verses describing the salient moments of the story. The brilliant stile, sometimes almost cartoon-like and caricature-like, gives us an Alice with retro features and contemporary temperament. All the other Wonderland's characters are pervaded by this spirit and rhythmically accompany us in the reading of The Lost Rime
