Rating: - Alincina - Alicia - Alice
For I have read Alice in wonderland in Spanish, French, Italian and English. I know that translations can mutilate the piece of work, but in many cases (such as Alice and 100 years of Solitude by Garcia Marquez) it can feed the literary sense of the pages. The game of words, in every language will dispose of different elements, thus giving the images within the text new visions, new symbols, new meanings. Wonderful book, wonderful dream. for life, what is it, but a Dream?
