While the first book plays with living letters, this time Alicia gets involved in a mad game of chess. Carroll provides a list of movements that take place in it, although some of them go against the rules of the game, like a toddler who was playing.



In this work, Carroll poses the problem of reality and dreams. The mirror is a gateway to a world upside down, in which an innocent girl goes into a surreal reality whose center is a game of chess completely arbitrary and illogical. As magical waters that lead to other unknown dimensions and the same goes for the mirrors.



Alicia, as in the first installment of his odyssey, wake up and discover it was all a dream: "What is life but a dream?" So Carroll closes the novel, reminding that life is a dream.

Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There is an adventure into the world of a child, where the impossible becomes possible and vice versa. And in this world we must be as crazy as the Mad Hatter to flee, to escape reality and survive.
