Chiltern Publishing was formed in 2018 with a vision to create the most beautiful classics. Using a perfect mix of tradition and the very latest in printing techniques, 19th Century quality has
met 21st Century technology. With wonderfully detailed covers, sparkling gilt edges, creamy pages, and stitched binding they are the most beautiful classics ever published. Through The Looking Glass - also known as Alice Through the Looking Glass - is the 1871 sequel to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, written by Lewis Carroll. The plot centres around a young girl named Alice who, instead of falling down a rabbit hole, this time steps through a mirror into the fantasy world that she can see beyond. Inside, she discovers that everything is reversed, an inverse reflection of reality. Perplexingly, running helps you stand still, walking away from something brings you towards it, chess pieces are alive, and nursery rhyme characters exist.
Along the way, she meets Humpty Dumpty, Tweedledum, Tweedledee, the angry Red Queen, and many other characters that readers have come to know and love. The
books in this series are considered to be one of the best examples of the literary nonsense genre, playing with logic and giving the stories lasting popularity with young and old alike. Nothing is what it seems in the distorted reality of the looking glass!
