Blog # 12

Okay so for the book i've chosen Alice in Wonderland & Through the looking-glass By Lewis Carroll there's not much of a heroes quest going on (maybe to early to find out) but there is ALOT of symbolism and foreshadowing.

Alice at this point of the book she seems like she has Schizophrenia. She has conversations with herself, believing while she fell through the rabbit-hole that her persona changed. She believes she "Alice" has changed to her friend "Mabel" because she couldn't remember her times table and she doesn't remember Geometry; so she believes she changed into Mabel because her friend is dumb. (LOL a little funny). I believe Alice is about 7 or 8 years old. She is very pensive ; she always has something on her mind. Somethings that 7 or 8 year olds shouldn't be thinking of.


* One thing to keep in mind which I think is foreshadowing is Alice is always talking about her cat Dinah. Dinah this Dinah that. This is something i have to keep a look out for. Also I think her tears and/or her crying all the time is a foreshadowing because that is being brought up alot too.
