I progressed further into the book, bearing witness to all the strange happenings in this wonderland. Everything and everybody seemed to be like a caricature, and like caricatures, they had such an uncanny resemblance to reality. Alice came upon a cat in her pursuit of the white rabbit. She had a short,…

It makes one wonder how could he have possibly convince a man to to jump off a building and why did he convince in the first.
