"Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" is a summer tale published by Lewis Carroll (Charles Lutwidge Dodgson) for the first time in July 1865. Many of the characters and adventures in that book have to with a pack of cards. "Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There" is a winter tale, which Carroll first published in December 1871. In this second tale, the characters and adventures are based on the game of chess. "Through the Looking-Glass" contains more word-play and logical paradoxes than than "Alice". In consequence it is more a book for adults than the earlier work. It is also a more difficult book to translate, as most translators attest-perhaps it is because Carroll took pains to make it somewhat more subtle and polished, Olivier Simon's translation into Sambahsa meets the task admirably, and is a superb companion to "Ia Aventures as Alice in Daumsenland".
