LITERATURE
Carroll, Lewis

Jabberwocky

(4) YA Visions in Poetry series. Illustrated by Stephane Jorisch. A sense of foreboding pervades this sophisticated interpretation of Carroll's classic nonsense poem. Washed with muted color, the scratchy illustrations reveal a dreamlike world with TVs and cameras present everywhere. The unsettling images seem to be commenting on politics, consumerism, war, the media, and more, and the book seems best suited to YA and adult audiences.
