Guest: Jamie Horrocks, PhD, Assistant Professor of English, Brigham Young University As part of our regular series “From the Vaults,” let’s explore some fantastical illustrations in BYU’s Special Collections archive. They’re from Lewis Carroll’s “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland.” Did you know that surrealist painter Salvador Dalí illustrated a copy? Special Collections has his version—which makes the strange tale even “curiouser and curiouser.” The BYU holdings also include an 1886 edition with the original illustrations by John Tenniel.
