What is the underlying meaning of the story and the strange characters she met?
Alice in Wonderland
I don't remember. I think it was a dream or something? Maybe the meaning was that dreams are weird
Unironically? Cunny.
That absinthe causes hallucination.
Cute!!!
They each represented a different type of psychosis
There isn't one. It's just supposed to be a fun, whimsical adventure.

Which coincidentally is about the age of the real Alice Liddell and her friends when Carroll told them the stories.
Lewis Carol was a notorious pedophile and his sexual abuse of his niece Alice Lidell was an open secret. Everything about wonderland is a thinly veiled allegory for carol's crimes. I mean, what do you think "down the rabbit hole" really means? It means violently raping a prepubescent girl.
idk man its all standard hero's journey stuff
each character represents some archetype of the collective unconscious and its all a giant metaphor for puberty and coming of age n sheeit

How old was she? I need to know which hell I'm going to
>his niece
He wasn't their uncle, just a friend of the family.
Jefferson Airplane queered this and it's never recovered
>It's actually about math and science
this, it is a metaphor for the *then* new concepts of mathematics
This. The author Lewis Carroll really, really loved little girls. Even photographing them.
Alice a cute.
