"Alice in Wonderland" at 150 - CBS News
By CBS NEWS November 29, 2015,
For generations, "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" has transported us down the rabbit hole into the whimsical underworld of the Cheshire Cat with his grin; the Mad Hatter with his silly riddles; and the Monarch head who oft demanded "Off with their heads!"
"At some point in your life you identify with Alice," said Andrew Sellon, a member of the Lewis Carroll Society. "Because you look around and say to yourself, 'Everyone around here is crazy and how am I going to get out of this experience alive?'"
Sellon was visiting the New York Public Library, one of many institutions worldwide celebrating the beloved story's 150th anniversary, and the movies, theater and music it has inspired.
"What other popular cultural book that you can think of that has done this?"
