Sylvie and Bruno (Version 2 Dramatic Reading)

Sylvie and Bruno, first published in 1889, intertwines two distinct narratives: one set in the Victorian era and the other in the enchanting realm of Fairyland. The story follows the adventures of Sylvie and her brother Bruno, exploring themes of love, social critique, and the nature of reality. As they traverse both worlds, they encounter a cast of whimsical characters, each contributing to the rich tapestry of their journey.

This work is notable not only for its imaginative storytelling but also for its unique blend of fairy tale elements with serious social commentary. Lewis Carroll, renowned for his playful language and inventive style, employs a mix of nonsense poetry and thoughtful dialogue to challenge societal norms of his time. The illustrations by Harry Furniss further enhance the reading experience, making it a visual as well as literary delight.

Fans of classic literature, fairy tales, and those who appreciate Carroll's earlier works, such as the Alice series, will find much to enjoy in this captivating tale. This FREE audiobook, narrated by dedicated volunteers, allows you to immerse yourself in Carroll's whimsical world, accessible online for your listening pleasure.
