Aldrin in Wonderland
I know, I know. Putting my name in the title of this post is nothing short of pretentious. But what can I say? When you’d just completed your Vintage Classic Twins collection of wonderful books of wonderment, where else would you find yourself in?
That’s right, boys and girls. After almost a week of driving customer service reps up the wall and making a mess out of the bookshelves of numerous bookstores within the metro and on the Web, I managed to collect all twenty titles in the limited edition Vintage Classic Twins treasury: (in order of acquisition) Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Atonement, Atomised, Frankenstein, Gulliver’s Travels, Ripley’s Game, The Rachel Papers, What Maisie Knew, Trainspotting, Sexing the Cherry, Crime and Punishment, Sabbath’s Theater, Tom Jones, Inferno, Oliver Twist, Possession, Middlemarch, The Complete Fairy Tales, The Bloody Chamber, and The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle, which I finally got ahold of tonight when I, armed only with a stored value MRT ticket and a degree of determination such as I have never exhibited before, went to every bookstore located along or near EDSA in search of Haruki Murakami’s modern fantasy, which I was required to purchase along with its twin, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland.
That’s right, ladies and gentlemen. I ended up with not one, but two Vintage Classic limited edition copies of Lewis Carroll’s masterpiece. And, taking a leaf from this guy’s book, I’ve decided to give one of them away. And it could be yours. If you want it, just do whatever you can do with this post. Like it, reblog it, comment on it, or celebrate your un-birthday with it. Whatever. Just be sure (be very sure) you’re currently residing in the Philippines, so I can ship the book to your address if you win the draw, raffle, whatever.
So who wants this bizarrely beautiful book?

I wanted to dress up as Alice for Halloween but someone already took dibs. I hope she brings justice to Alice… Otherwise, baka magwala ako
