Summary:

Once Alice embarks on her next adventure, nothing is quite what it seems. Through a mirror, she enters a fantastical world of illogical behavior dominated by chess boards and chess pieces, and where time runs backwards. The story follows the exploits of a spirited young girl who parries with the Red Queen, Tweedledee and Tweedledum, and other unusual characters she encounters. The game of chess that Alice faces is a reflection of how society's rigid hierarchy works. And, in many ways, this sequel has had an even greater impact on today's pop culture than the first book, with its whimsical and thought-provoking themes.
