So i noticed from the start of chapter five that Alice mentioned how she's changed and grown every ten minutes. I caught this as a symbol that this child is growing, and she doesn't happen to like it. She's growning out of her child years, and changing into a pre-teen, but doesnt want to let the joys of being a little girl go. She thinks she's losing herself because she is changing so fast, and she can't handle it all at one time. She's got this mind set that since shes is changing that she is losing who she was, and that she can count herself as a stranger.
And why is there a smoking catepillar? O.o
What did you think when the caterpillar asked Alice who she was? Alice became confused by this question and could not answer it because she does not know.
ReplyDeleteWhat did you think of the Cheshire Cat when he said that it does not matter which way you go because you will eventually get someplace?
Why not have a smoking caterpillar? Her little "dream" never made sense in the first place. Maybe the caterpillar is just a reminder that she's still in a dream like trance. What do you think of chapter six? i thought it was very confusing with the whole house and duchess thing.
