It's been said that only Shakespeare and the Bible are quoted more than the Alice in Wonderland works. Since it was first released, the iconic Alice has been adapted in movies, plays even video games. A new book looks at the duality of author, protagonist, and work? half-sanitized, disneyfied children's story, half-dark, psychedelic, borderline pedophilic fantasy. The many sides and influences of Lewis Carroll and Alice in Wonderland is on the next Exchange. Trish's guest is Will Brooker, Associate Professor of Communications at Richmond, the American International University in London and author of "Alice's Adventures: Lewis Carroll in Popular Culture".
