Summary
Young-adult fiction with cross-generational appeal employing a mash-up of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland/Through the Looking-Glass and M. N. Shyamalan’s The Sixth Sense.
It plays to the mind of the inner child of every adult who’s grappled with the un-realness of reality. Alice, a Croatian immigrant working in the food and beverage industry, just turned 26, discovered she’s pregnant, and is someone who fell down that rabbit hole of debt during the COVID-19 pandemic when bars and restaurants were forced to close for many months.
The cast of characters range from a hookah-smoking caterpillar transmogrified into a human bartender, then a butterfly, to bloodthirsty queens, eternally tardy rabbits, hatters, Gods, ass-kicking knights, talking flowers, cats, insects, the Jimi Hendrix Experience, members of a club catering to the golden showers crowd called Wee The People, unicorns, lions.... Anyone who ever dropped acid, peyote, mescaline, or done mushrooms, has already met Alice.
