A watercolor over the mantle ripples. A woman sleepwalks, pulled by moonlight and dreams, until she stands under the painting, the last gift she was given by author Lewis Carroll, on the eve of her wedding.</p><p>Her name is Alice. And on the other side of the painting, Wonderland is calling to her.</p><p>One last time.</p><p>Tick...tock...tick...</p><p>In Wonderland, one only works in ones sleep.</p><p>All proper Wonderlandians spend all night, every night, hard at work, winding the great clock of Wonderland - the Master Chronometer - of which all other Wonderlandians are but synchronized slave clocks.</p><p>At night, one understands that one is made of clockwork, although, of course, one pretends otherwise when one is awake.
