Carroll’s empathy for the emotions of childhood is part of what gives the “Alice” books their energy; they approximate how bewildering and curious the world can seem through a young person’s eyes. When Carroll looked through the lens of his Victorian camera, what he saw was through the looking glass the world upside down, much like the world of Alice. It feels fitting to picture Lewis Carroll spending his leisure hours looking at an up-side down topsy-turvy world and then, with the trick of his camera, turning it back around.
This selection is contentious there are few pictures of famous people; few of the adults of the world he felt uncomfortable with, but many more of whom inspired his beautiful writing.
