Alice, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll

Alice is a hero of mine who, again, contends with a world wildly different than the one she thought she knew. Everything from physical laws to social conventions are turned topsy turvy and she's left only with her wits and instincts to try to traverse this strange, new country she finds herself in.

"Curiouser and curiouser," is a handy quote to have on hand when I read the news these days.
