There's this book where these kids, for whatever reason, are put in this HUGE room with never-ending connecting staircases. I think I remember that sometimes food will just show up on some of the landings, but no one ever sees how it gets there.
It's kind of a weird book. Anyone know it?

...and it's NOT Alice in Wonderland.

"The House of Stairs" by William Sleator
http://www.amazon.com/House-Stairs-William-Sleator/dp/0140345809
"One by one, five sixteen-year-old orphans are brought to a strange building. It is not a prison, not a hospital; it has no walls, no ceiling, no floor. Nothing but endless flights of stairs leading nowhere —except back to a strange red machine. The five must learn to love the machine and let it rule their lives. But will they let it kill their souls? This chilling, suspenseful indictment of mind control is a classic of science fiction and will haunt readers long after the last page is turned."
