Description
"Sylvie and Bruno" by Lewis Carroll is a novel published in two volumes in 1889 and 1893. This unusual work weaves together two parallel narratives: a fairy tale set in the fantastical realm of Fairyland, and a social novel unfolding in Victorian Britain. As conspiracy brews in the magical kingdom of Outland against the Warden, a young doctor named Arthur navigates romance and society in the real world. The stories blend Carroll's characteristic nonsense poetry with philosophical discussions of religion, morality, and society. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
