Alice saw the book indications sent by our crew and selected some. She is amazed by the non existent " the thousand faces of Alice" by the book collector and nexialist @semperluxus! She than she became fascinated by Raymond Queneau's "Exercices de style", a collection of 99 retellings of the same story. Adventurer in the lands of dreams, she selected "La vida es sueño" by Calderón de la Barca and "Book of Dreams" by the beatnik Jack Kerouac. "Life, what is it but a dream?" asked Lewis Carroll. She also selected "Memories, dreams and reflections" by Karl Gustav Jung, diving into the mysteries of the collective unconscious. 

 She chose “A Brief History of Time” by Stephen Hawking, in the search for answers to some of humanity's greatest doubts: What is the origin of the universe? Is he infinite? Has it always existed, or was there a beginning and will there be an end? And what will happen when it's all over? In “Mulheres Mitos e Deusas” by Martha Roble she seeks to understand the feminine, she came into contact with the history and dilemmas experienced by figures such as Aphrodite, Cinderella, Simone de Beauvoir and Virginia Woolf, on a journey to redefine the role of women in the world. 

She felt her innocence and naivety challenged reading "Songs of Innocence and Experience" by William Blake, a collection of illustrated poems by the visionary artist. She felt intrigued by the controversial Lolita, considering Nabokov's interest in Lewis Carroll. She also choose to read “The Clockwock Alice” by Deanna Knippling, "How all these books are connected with my oneiric experiences? How they deal with the questions I live in my adventures?" She wondered.
