Alice

The literary nonsense is definitely evident in this novel. I have found myself needing to re-read some parts just to make sure I didn't accidently skip anything. Alice's character is loving, fun, and slightly ignorant, like most children at such a young age. She isn't given much introduction at the beginning of the book. The book itself doesn't have much of an intro either. It seems to start with: This is Alice, and..DEAR GOD, a talking rabbit! Into the rabbit hole!  I was expecting a little more of an intro than that, but after further reading, I don't think it could have fit any better. Back to Alice. She has a weird quality to her. The way she thinks seems, fittingly, nonsensical at times. She's impatient yet calm, emotional yet level-headed, selfish yet caring. Everything about her is contradictory. If I were to put an explanation to it, I would say that she seems to be a little bi-polar, or to have multiple personality disorder. It seems though that she's just a kid, exploring a world both foreign and magical.
