EDITORS COMMENTS
1. The Lewis Carroll Memorial: A Tribute to the Literary Genius of Llandudno's Famous Son The Lewis Carroll Memorial in Llandudno, Wales, stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of the renowned author and photographer, Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, better known by his pen name, Lewis Carroll. Unveiled on June 17, 1933, by the esteemed Welsh politician David Lloyd George, this historical landmark is a must-visit for literature enthusiasts and tourists alike. Located in the heart of Llandudno's picturesque Victorian Gardens, the memorial features a white marble statue of Carroll, seated on a bench, with a live rabbit at his feet. This charming scene pays homage to Carroll's most famous creation, Alice in Wonderland, and the iconic character of the White Rabbit. The intricate details of the statue, including Carroll's signature monocle and the rabbit's expressive features, capture the whimsy and imagination that defined Carroll's works. The memorial's unveiling was a significant event in Llandudno's history, with thousands of people gathering to celebrate the town's connection to the celebrated author. Born in Daresbury, Cheshire, Carroll spent many summers in Llandudno during his childhood, and it was here that he drew inspiration for some of the fantastical elements in his works. Today, the Lewis Carroll Memorial continues to attract visitors from around the world, who come to pay their respects to the literary genius and to enjoy the beautiful surroundings of Llandudno's Victorian Gardens. As a symbol of Carroll's enduring influence on literature and the arts, the memorial stands as a reminder of the power of imagination and the importance of preserving our cultural heritage.
