"Alice to the Lighthouse" is the first and only full-length study
of the relation between children's literature and writing for
adults. Lewis Carroll's "Alice" books created a revolution in
writing for and about children which had repercussions not only for
subsequent children's writers--Stevenson, Kipling, Nesbit, Frances
Hodgson Burnett and Mark Twain--but for Virginia Woolf and her
generation. Virginia Woolf's celebration of writing as play rather
than preaching is the twin of the Post-Impressionist art championed
by Roger Fry. Juliet Dusinberre connects books for children in the
late nineteenth century with developments in education and
psychology, all of which feed into the modernism of the early 20th
century.
