With the recent resurgence of the popularity of 'Alice in Wonderland' due to Tim Burton's new film, Collins Design has cranked out what is probably the most amazing version of the first story, 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland', ever published. While the story itself, a flawless example of the genre of literary nonsense, has transcended time and place to fix itself as a classic story, the equal star in this edition is the bizarre, dark, and beautiful artwork by renowned artist Camille Rose Garcia. Filling the dust-jacket and sturdy pages with near-disturbing portrayals of already disturbed characters, the fantasmagorical illustrations of this edition help bring to life the warped story of a young girl falling down a tricked-out rabbit hole into a land of dreams, and her encounters with the odd, over-the-top, and deranged inhabitants of that Wonderland. A true masterwork of a story with amazing illustrations!
