Patrick Senécal's Aliss (2000) is a Bloodier and Gorier rewrite of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, set in Daresbury, a mysterious neighborhood of Montréal. The teenage Aliss, rebelling against her normal life, finds herself following an absent-minded older man, Charles, to the previously invisible Daresbury stop on the Metro. Shortly after her arrival, she becomes obsessed with the mysterious building near her apartment, the residence of the Red Queen. Soon, Aliss decides that she will do anything to enter the Red Queen's employ—no matter how dangerous.The novel is available only in French. Désolé.

Pay Evil unto Evil
 Aliss / int_1d18887f
comment
Pay Evil unto Evil: Daresbury justice works like this. Assault someone, and they have the right to assault you back. When Mickey attacks Aliss while she is working for the Red Queen, Bone and Chair offer her the opportunity to torture him as retribution. She can't do it, and therefore fails the Red Queen's test.

comment
Crapsack World: The Red Queen runs Daresbury like it's Gangster Land, complete with regular demands for protection money. If you don't pay up, you'll get a visit from one of her "servants," or, worse still, Bone and Chair. Moreover, much of Daresbury looks like a crumbling slum.

Defrosting Ice Queen
 Aliss / int_28c1d543
comment
Defrosting Ice Queen: Aliss believes that, thanks to the Power of Friendship, both Andromaque and the Red Queen are genuinely discovering new emotional depths. As it turns out, the novel subverts the trope. Aliss is completely wrong about the Red Queen, which is par for the course. In Andromaque's case, there really is some defrosting at work, but the results are ultimately tragic.

Villainous Rescue: Bone and Chair save Aliss from potentially life-threatening situations three times. Aliss thinks, all evidence to the contrary, that the two of them are being Good Samaritans; it's only the third time, when they save her from Mickey, that she realizes the truth. It's part of the Secret Test of Character.

Nietzsche Wannabe: Aliss is absolutely convinced that she's in Also Sprach Zarathustra, which is why she becomes so intent on pursuing the Red Queen: she thinks that the Queen is the "surfemme" (Superwoman). However, as several characters point out to her, she hasn't understood what little she's read of Nietzsche.

Canon Welding: The Red Queen is none other than Michelle Beaulieu, who ran away from her Dysfunctional Family nine years prior, in Patrick Senécal's book 5150, Rue des Ormes. Michelle is mentioned in one of his later works, Le vide, and appears again in Senécal's 2015 book, Faims. Similarly, Mickey and the Royales make a surprise reappearance years later, in the second book of Patrick Senécal's quadrilogy Malphas.

Major Injury Underreaction: Several. Verrue (the Caterpillar) is shot in the leg early on; then, after the leg becomes gangrenous, a doctor amputates it. With an axe. And without anesthesia. Verrue manages to stay philosophical about the entire affair. Minnie keeps reading from the Marquis de Sade even though Chair has just slashed her throat open. Chair seems only mildly annoyed by the loss of his ear. At the end, Aliss keeps going for a surprisingly long time, despite being both shot and raped.

Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane: Daresbury itself. On the one hand, regular technology works there, residents listen to music from outside, and it's possible to leave by Metro or phone Montréal. Crucially, as Aliss discovers, the effects of Daresbury's drugs and bullets carry over to the rest of the world, and vice-versa. On the other, there's no way to walk out of Daresbury, and it can only be reached by those in the right frame of mind. There are no sexually-transmitted diseases or pregnancies (except for Andromaque's child). Moreover, at least one of the residents is immortal. There's also the matter of Verrue's fate.

Put the "Laughter" in "Slaughter"
 Aliss / int_d8df3d27
comment
Put the "Laughter" in "Slaughter": Bone and Chair are extremely cheerful during their little "experiments." The audience at the trial has a grand time with the dartboard execution.

Drugs Are Bad
 Aliss / int_de7b7cbf
comment
Drugs Are Bad: Aliss's experiences with Micros and Macros are almost all nightmarish, and even when they aren't, the pills' overall effects are obviously bad.

The Bore: Mickey and Minnie may be into bondage (see below), but the other characters find them excruciatingly dull.

The Ditz
 Aliss / int_e2d457
comment
The Ditz: Lampshaded via Bone's and Chair's exchange after Pouf tries to escape them by throwing himself out a window, with predictable results, basically calling him stupid. Aliss frequently qualifies, especially when it comes to pursuing Bone and Chair to get an invite to the Red Queen's party.

Comically Missing the Point
 Aliss / int_fbd285b7
comment
Comically Missing the Point: Bone's and Chair's elaborate explanation for why they took so long to show up when La Résistance was trying to assassinate the Red Queen. As they quite seriously inform Aliss and the Queen, they'd locked themselves out of the car, and were debating about whether or not to break the window in order to get their guns. The Red Queen does not find this entertaining.
