Lewis Carroll: A Portrait With Background Details
Amazon.com Review The marvelous whimsy of Alice in Wonderland masked unsparing revelations about the uncertainty of identity and impossibility of truly grasping reality--philosophical themes that biographers have dealt with far more comfortably than the now-famous fondness for little girls displayed by the Reverend Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (1832-98). This is certainly not true of British novelist and biographer Donald Thomas, who positively revels in the less savory interests of his subject, from prostitution to lunatic asylums.
