From your multimillion-copy best-selling author of Wicked comes a enchanting new twist on Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, publicized to coincide with the 150th wedding anniversary of Lewis Carroll's favorite classic. When Alice toppled down the rabbit opening 150 years back, she found a Wonderland as rife with inconsistent guidelines and abrasive egos as the planet she left out. But what of this world? How does 1860s Oxford react to Alice's disappearance? In this brilliant work of fiction, Gregory Maguire turns his dazzling creativity to the question of underworlds, undergrounds, underpinnings - and understandings old and new, offering an inventive spin on Carroll's enduring tale. Ada, a pal of Alice's mentioned briefly in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, is off to go to her friend but arrives an instant too late - and tumbles down the rabbit opening herself. Ada brings to Wonderland her own imperfect apprehension of cause and result as she embarks on an odyssey to find Alice and find out her safely home out of this surreal world below the world. If Eurydice can ever be came back to the forearms of Orpheus or Lazarus can be elevated from the tomb, perhaps Alice can be came back to life. In any event, everything that occurs next is After Alice.
