Short One Boosting Angela Carter

I found out about Angela Cater while in prison, but did not get to read until I came to Muncie. I wrote about that in Books: Angela Carter's Love. This is a writer I did not know of 40 years ago, and one I think more of you should—men as well as women.

As an example of why, the other day, Interesting Literature published A Summary and Analysis of Angela Carter’s ‘The Werewolf’. Give it a shot, folks.

Also from the same publication, A Summary and Analysis of Angela Carter’s ‘Wolf-Alice’

 But if ‘Wolf-Alice’ is in part a story about the treatment of outsiders, it is also – like most of the stories in The Bloody Chamber – about female sexuality and coming-of-age, the dawning of a girl’s awareness of her body and herself as a sexual being. Indeed, in the Neil Jordan film The Company of Wolves, which adapted these three werewolf tales for the big screen, Carter stated that the wolves in these stories represent ‘libido’.
