Reddit reviews Automated Alice

For some reason I don't have the Folio Society edition. Not sure why, their books are lovely, I have quite a few others from them.

My favourite is The Philosopher's Alice, a book which I love for all sorts of personal reasons as well as being a great read. I have a pop-up edition which is pretty cool. I like Automated Alice. The BabyLit Colour Primer is great fun (we have a lot of the Babylit books). Yayoi Kusama's illustrated editon is just gorgeous. Somewhere I have some older (early 20thC) editions with illustrations other than Tenniels but my library is in a state of minor chaos and they're not where they should be. I have a stack of Tenniel editions from various times too, I think the oldest is a lovely small format version with loads of colour plates (his illustrations were redrawn in colour for those) from the early 1930s. I have a very, very battered and falling apart copy of Annotated Alice which if you don't have you should absolutely try to find because it's amazing.

The one I buy for people (usually when they have kids) and for some reason never have myself (yet) is Barnes and Noble's gorgeous leather-bound edition.

From the exhibition which ran in 2015 at the British Library I also have some postcards, a pen, a throw cushion and a mug. Because that's what happens when you have to exit through the gift shop... :)

Jeff Noon wrote a book called Automated Alice which is a trequel to the two Alice books written by Lewis Caroll.

In her adventures Alice soon encounters a part-man, part-badger named Captain Ramshackle, Professor of Randomology, and the fictional entity I have used as my username.

It does not refer to the Indie Night that used to happen in the Carling Academy in Birmingham in the early 2000s even though I went there quite a lot.
