Through the Rat's hole
by mathildeb on February 25, 2012
"Neverwhere" is kind of an Alice in Wonderland for adults. Like in AiW, a lot of things don't make sense, purposely so. The main character, a twenty-five-something londoner, Richard Mayhew, gets sucked up into another world, London Below, after he helps a mysterious bleeding girl on the street, Door. Indeed he had become "invisible", lost his job, his wife didn't know him, he had lost his flat, and decided to go in search of Door to set things right - and got to London Below, where things are just plain crazy, frightening, dangerous, and sometimes, plain cool. It's a hard read, because of the nonsense, but it's a cool book.
Alice in Wonderland

1) A classic story. Told in old language. Be prepared to use your dictionary. 2) Alice is a curious kid and finds herself in Wonderland. Here she faces many problems. Hard to describe, I read it a while back.
Great work!!

Such an amazing work!! Showing the many varieties of characters and critising shades of human nature with use of awesome humour!! I loved this book and Charles Dickens is certainly my favourite author. Hats off to his imagination and observation.
