Cristopher Hollingsworth, associate professor of English at the University of South Alabama, is the author of Poetics of the Hive: The Insect Metaphor in Literature (IOWA 2001). His most recent scholarship focuses on Lewis Carroll and H. G. Wells.
Alice beyond Wonderland both defines the continuing strangeness of the Alice books and offers a surprising and fresh reading of the ongoing 'work' of Carroll's writing on Wonderland in the twenty-first century. This fresh consideration, determined not to repeat the critical tropes of the past, indicates the ways Alice has crossed cultures and literary, political, and technological spaces. Hollingsworth deserves our praise for being so bold a thinker in conceiving this project. - Barry Qualls, author, The Secular Pilgrims of Victorian Fiction: The Novel as Book of Life ""Alice beyond Wonderland offers an exciting range of new perspectives on the Alice books, linked around the core theme of space. This impressive collection will make an excellent and original contribution to the literature on Alice and Carroll."" - Will Brooker, author, Alice's Adventure: Lewis Carroll in Popular Culture
