SELECTED POETRY BY LEWIS CARROLL

Roger May narrates a wide collection of verse composed by the author of ALICE'S ADVENTURES IN WONDERLAND with engaging animation that neither oversteps into camp nor slides into rote recitation. His delivery makes the audiobook a perfect choice for listeners of all ages to enjoy, either on its own or in concert with reading Carroll's prose works. In addition to verses from the ALICE novels, the collection includes THE HUNTING OF THE SNARK and verses penned years before ALICE. May handles the many made-up words with seeming effortlessness, giving those who’ve encountered such words only in Carroll’s text excellent models for pronouncing them as they continue to enjoy his classics.
