Description

"Sylvie and Bruno (Illustrated)" by Lewis Carroll is a novel published in 1889. This unusual work weaves together two distinct narratives: a Victorian social novel exploring religion, philosophy, and morality, and a whimsical fairy tale set in the fantastical realm of Fairyland. The story follows a conspiracy against the Warden of Outland while simultaneously tracking a young doctor's love for Lady Muriel. Through shifting realities and playful nonsense elements, Carroll creates an ambitious blend of social commentary and童話 fantasy, illustrated by Harry Furniss.
