Shadow Dance
Don't start here!: If you've never read anything by Angela Carter, don't start here. Shadow Dance is a decent read with some arresting and haunting images and situations, and it won a major book prize, but it's not "typical Carter", and if it [... more]

Heroes and Villians
A book that has not aged well: I've read several Angela Carter novels--all of them great, but "Heroes and Villains" disappointed. After the glorious reading offered by "The Magic Toyshop" and "Several Perceptions," I had [... more]

Love (King Penguin)
Gothic love triangle: It's hard to pidgeonhole Angela Carter's "Love" into a specific genre. It has all the elements of a melodrama - love, sex, madness, violence, even a hint of incest - but the entity created by the talented Carter isn't [... more]

The Bloody Chamber
waste of time: This is bad writing at its worst because it is apparent that it could have maybe been good. The imagery is dull, cliché, and facile. The stories are predictable and, worst of all, uninteresting. Everything is over-stylized, obvious, [... more]

Shaking a Leg: Collected Journalism and Writings
Amazon.com Review: Angela Carter died in 1992, but her novels, short story collections, and essays live on, attracting new generations of readers to her often dark, always quirky worldview. Perhaps best known for her fiction (Wise Children, Nights at the [... more]

Saints and Strangers (King Penguin)
The mistress of feminist irony: Angela Carter is the mistress of feminist irony. Her most famous and seminal collection The Bloody Chamber took beloved fairy tales and twisted them, showing us how wrong (and even silly) their accepted patriarchal bases [... more]
