1889 LEWIS CARROLL 1^st ed Sylvie and Bruno Alice in Wonderland Victorian Fantasy

“Sylvie and Bruno” by Lewis Carroll, published in two volumes between 1889 and 1893, is a blend of Victorian-era reality and a fantasy world called Fairyland. The story transitions between political intrigues in Fairyland and a romantic subplot in Victorian Britain involving a young doctor named Arthur and his love, Lady Muriel Orme. The novel, reflecting Carroll’s signature wit and philosophy, is both a fairy tale and a social commentary, enhanced by 46 illustrations courtesy of Harry Furniss.
