Angela Carter
Does anyone know where I can find any good website about angla Carter and The Blooody Chamber - either about one specific story or aout her general feminist themes that run throughout.
Urgent...

Re: Angela Carter
There's a nice general essay on Angela Carter here: www.themodernword.com/scriptorium/carter.html. It's about her work overall, rather than The Bloody Chamber specifically, but interesting nonetheless.

For more in-depth material on Angela Carter and literary fairy tales, the excellent journal Marvels and Tales devoted an entire issue to the subject. Here's their web site: www.langlab.wayne.edu/MarvelsHome/Marvels_Tales.html

Re: Angela Carter
Angela Carter Research Page is one I've found, it has a cool link to a tv interview with Ms. Carter. Also, check if your university is linked to a database like Project Muse or Infotrac Web since they have some pretty good academic journals on their list. Lots of articles about Carter available there.

And yeah, that special Marvels and Tales issue on Carter Ms Windling mentioned is a great resource - it can also be ordered via amazon.com, which is how I got my own (precious) copy.

Re: Angela Carter
There are a number of collections of essays on Carter's work--if you have access to a university library, a quick troll through their catalog should bring up a few. One I know off the top of my head is called Angela Carter: The Rational Glass. I think there's another called Flesh and the Mirror, but I wouldn't swear to it.

Flesh and the Mirror is edited by Lorna Sage and The Rational Glass is written by Aidan Day.

Re: Angela Carter
Thanks Anita! I swear, my mind is like a manuscript w/holes burned in it. The info I can call up is usually accurate, but so incomplete as not to be very helpful!
