A reissue of a collection of short stories first published ten years ago. They include "The Company of Wolves", on which the prize-winning film of the same name was based. Angela Carter is the author of "Nights at the Circus" and "The Magic Toyshop". --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
From Wikipedia: Born Angela Olive Stalker in Eastbourne, in 1940, Carter was evacuated as a child to live in Yorkshire with her maternal grandmother. As a teenager she battled anorexia. She began work as a journalist on the Croydon Advertiser, following in the footsteps of her father. Carter attended the University of Bristol where she studied English literature.
She married twice, first in 1960 to Paul Carter. They divorced after twelve years. In 1969 Angela Carter used the proceeds of her Somerset Maugham Award to leave her husband and relocate for two years to Tokyo, Japan, where she claims in Nothing Sacred (1982) that she "learnt what it is to be a woman and became radicalised." She wrote about her experiences there in articles for New Society and a collection of short stories, Fireworks: Nine Profane Pieces (1974), and evidence of her experiences in Japan can also be seen in The Infernal Desire Machines of Doctor Hoffman (1972). She was there at the same time as Roland Barthes, who published his experiences in Empire of Signs (1970).
She then explored the United States, Asia, and Europe, helped by her fluency in French and German. She spent much of the late 1970s and 1980s as a writer in residence at universities, including the University of Sheffield, Brown University, the University of Adelaide, and the University of East Anglia. In 1977 Carter married Mark Pearce, with whom she had one son.
As well as being a prolific writer of fiction, Carter contributed many articles to The Guardian, The Independent and New Statesman, collected in Shaking a Leg. She adapted a number of her short stories for radio and wrote two original radio dramas on Richard Dadd and Ronald Firbank. Two of her fictions have been adapted for the silver screen: The Company of Wolves (1984) and The Magic Toyshop (1987). She was actively involved in both film adaptations, her screenplays are published in the collected dramatic writings, The Curious Room, together with her radio scripts, a libretto for an opera of Virginia Wolf's Orlando, an unproduced screenplay entitled The Christchurch Murders (based on the same true story as Peter Jackson's Heavenly Creatures) and other works. These neglected works, as well as her controversial television documentary, The Holy Family Album, are discussed in Charlotte Crofts' book, Anagrams of Desire (2003).
At the time of her death, Carter was embarking on a sequel to Charlotte Brontë's Jane Eyre based on the later life of Jane's stepdaughter, Adèle Varens. However, only a synopsis survives.
Her novel Nights at the Circus won the 1984 James Tait Black Memorial Prize for literature.
Angela Carter died aged 51 in 1992 at her home in London after developing lung cancer. Her obituary published in The Observer said, "She was the opposite of parochial. Nothing, for her, was outside the pale: she wanted to know about everything and everyone, and every place and every word. She relished life and language hugely, and reveled in the diverse."

評分Faerie tales turned into urban Gothics. Words coated with overflowing beauty. I am mesmerised... though I do feel the magic lies only in those layers of antique locutions.
評分文字讀起來讓人顫抖,但是實在不喜歡這種哥特風的玩意
評分現代成人童話,略哥特,高級妥帖的女權,一個字不提女權,在情節人物設定上顛反原版男權視角
評分(1979) R4 The Erl-King, Wolf-Alice, The Tiger's Bride, The Company of Wolves, Vampirella (House of Love)
▲《老虎新娘》 有些书评将本文理解为“野兽与美女的恋爱”,可能安吉拉·卡特本人也是出于这种写作目的,但是我希望从另一个角度发掘它的象征义(因为实在太贴切了)—— 野兽——原始欲望,宫殿——原始欲望的保护膜(排外), 父亲——贪婪且不知反省灵魂劣质的人...
評分作为黑童话爱好者,对于《染血之室与其他故事》的期待值高到绝对相信它会是满分。同类型作品不算少数,像是把《格林童话》黑色的那一面翻剥出来,就足够精彩。但我想若出自安吉拉·卡特的手笔,加上她精细华美的文字,一定会是比她曾编辑整理的《精怪故事集》更饱满而色彩丰艳...
