Author: Lewis Carroll Illustrated by Mervyn Peake

Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass have captivated the imagination of adults and children alike since they first appeared more than a hundred years ago. Since that time many artists have attempted to capture their dreamlike combination of impossible events, precise detail and weird logic.
Mervyn Peake's illustrations, commissioned in the 1940s, and unavailable in any edition since 1978, have been restored to their former clarity and brilliantly capture Alice's weird and wonderful world.

Don Quixote (Walker Illustrated Classics) order quantity

NZ$ 31.00 each
Paperback
Author: Miguel de Cervantes Retold by Martin Jenkins Illustrated by Chris Riddell
In Stock: 1
An illustrated new edition of the famous tale of Don Quixote, superbly retold by Martin Jenkins. The sparkling illustrations in both colour and black and white are by Chris Riddell.

Don Quixote is an elderly Spanish gentleman, who reads one too many chivalric romances, and decides to become a knight errant, accompanied by his faithful 'squire' Sancho Panza. He sets off on his travels through sixteenth-century Spain to right wrongs and rescue damsels in distress but his adventures - such as the famous incident in which he mistakes windmills for giants and attacks them - are both comic and romantic. In the end he returns to his village, a dying man who still believes in heroes and is a hero himself.

Walker Illustrated Classics are beautifully designed books that are a pleasure to read.
