The Westminster Alice

A whimsical twist on a classic tale, this audiobook transports Alice from her familiar wonderland into the corridors of Westminster, where the familiar nonsense meets the absurdities of politics. Guided by a cheeky Cheshire Cat, she encounters odd figures like the “Ineptitude,” a creature that seems to embody the baffling logic of bureaucratic debates, and a king and queen crafted from flimsy cardboard and cheap metal. Their conversations riff on the quirks of governance, from tangled theories to the ever‑present threat of a dragon in the garden, all rendered in playful, rhyming prose.

The story balances sharp satire with the delight of Carroll’s imaginative world, inviting listeners to laugh at the surreal portrait of parliamentary life while recognizing the familiar patterns of power, indecision, and endless chatter. It’s a light‑hearted yet thought‑provoking adventure that feels both timeless and oddly current, perfect for anyone who enjoys clever wordplay and a gentle poke at the political stage.
