"Through the Looking-Glass" is a novel by Lewis Carroll, published in 1871, and is the sequel to "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland." The story follows Alice as she enters a fantastical world by climbing through a mirror. In this world, everything is reversed, including logic, and the characters are represented by chess pieces. Alice meets various characters, including the Red Queen, Tweedledum and Tweedledee, and the White Queen. The book makes use of chess motifs and imagery, with the story divided into square fields divided by brooks or streams. The book has been adapted into various films, TV shows, and plays. A missing scene involving a "wasp in a wig" was suppressed and later discovered in 1974. The book is considered a mirror image of its predecessor, "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.
