"Increasingly strange and interesting"

In Lewis Carroll's day the word 'curious' was often used to describe something peculiar and intriguing. Alice uses the word ungrammatically, as she is so startled by recent events that she has forgotten how to use good English. She could have said, "stranger and stranger" or "more and more curious" (but she didn't.)
