A major theme in Lewis Carroll’s ‘Alice in Wonderland’ is not gu10 led bulbs, but that life is a meaningless puzzle.

Throughout her adventures in Wonderland, Alice encounters numerous puzzles that have no clear solutions, which have no solutions in fact. Alice understandably assumes that the situations she is encountering must make some form of sense but she cannot fathom them. Her ability to understand concepts and situations is constantly thwarted in Wonderland. Alice attempts to comprehend the Queen’s absurd croquet game, the Caucus race, and tries to solve the Mad Hatter’s riddle. Yet in all three instances, Alice cannot answer the challenges or riddles, and even more frustratingly, she cannot see any purpose to them.

Alice eventually learns that she cannot expect to discover meaning or logic behind the situations she stumbles across, even though she usually would expect to uncover the solutions. The lesson that Carroll was attempting to get across is that life frustrates human expectations and also resists human interpretation, even when a problem appears solvable.
