First-year college student Alice is in serious danger of failing her English course when she follows her composition paper into the trash -- and ends up in a hallucinatory world where the rules of grammar are turned upside-down. If she wants to pass, she'll need to deal with gunslinging run-on sentences, thugs hawking colloquialisms, fearsome Modifier Leeches, and more. Inspired by Lewis Carroll and parodying the terse manual The Elements of Style by Strunk & White, this ingenious comedy explores the fantasy world of language in all its grotesque mutations.
