Story
Alice's Inferno is inspired by Alice in Wonderland and Dante's Inferno (Divina Comedia). Alice's Inferno tells the story of Alice, who was admitted in a psychiatric hospital as a teenager after having been accused of killing her parents, which she had no memory of. When she was 16 years old, her boyfriend died in a psychiatric hospital under similar circumstances. Everything pointed to her again and she still didn't remember anything. As a result, she travels to her own hell, which is her subconscious mind.

Famous quotes containing the word story:
“For I could tell you a story which is true;
I know a lady with a terrible tongue,
Blear eyes fallen from blue,
All her perfections tarnished—and yet it is not long
Since she was lovelier than any of you.”
—John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)
“Civilization is a stream with banks. The stream is sometimes filled with blood from people killing, stealing, shouting and doing the things historians usually record, while on the banks, unnoticed, people build homes, make love, raise children, sing songs, write poetry and even whittle statues. The story of civilization is the story of what happened on the banks. Historians are pessimists because they ignore the banks for the river.”
—Will Durant (1885–1981)
“The face of the water, in time, became a wonderful book—a book that was a dead language to the uneducated passenger, but which told its mind to me without reserve, delivering its most cherished secrets as clearly as if it uttered them with a voice. And it was not a book to be read once and thrown aside, for it had a new story to tell every day.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
