See How 5 Authors Tattooed Themselves in Honor of Alice in Wonderland
Many book fans have heard the siren song of tattoo parlors and inscribed their favorite literary quotes forever on their bodies. But for readers who, like Alice, are on the fickle side "it's no use going back to yesterday, because I was a different person then", a temporary tattoo is a better solution. For the 150th anniversary of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Penguin Classics teamed up with design company Litographs to create temporary tattoos for Viking and Penguin authors. While any fan can ink up the company's Through the Looking Glass design a drawing of the walrus saying, "The time has come", Penguin's authors each wore different phrases from the conclusion of Alice in celebration.
