“[Return to Wonderland] is very much of reflection of the here and now and the world we live in. I remember reading that one thing Lewis Carroll included in the original Alice’s adventures in Wonderland were the proper etiquette a young lady should have for those days and times. Most of those lessons no longer apply in the society we live in today. So I took those same tidbits and applied them in a more modern day context. In #3 during the tea party there’s a life lesson about ladies letting strangers prepare their drinks that really brings it home that this isn’t your mom and dad’s wonderland. But there’s also a sense that time has moved forward since the original tale was told that relates to this story in various ways.”
