Lewis Carroll Collected editions

Lewis Carroll (1832 – 1898) was an English writer, mathematician, and photographer whose imaginative works have delighted readers for generations. Born Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, he is best known for Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and its sequel Through the Looking-Glass, whimsical tales that blend wordplay, fantasy, and gentle satire.

Carroll’s playful use of language and inventive logic puzzles continue to charm both children and adults, while his poems — including “Jabberwocky” and “The Hunting of the Snark” — showcase his boundless creativity. A lecturer in mathematics at Oxford, he balanced analytical precision with an unparalleled gift for nonsense.

Through his dreamlike worlds and enduring characters, Lewis Carroll reshaped the landscape of children’s literature.
