WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY MICHAEL MOORCOCK
Angela Carter was one of the most important and influential writers of our time- a novelist of extraordinary power and a searching critic and essayist.This selection of her writing, which she made herself, covers more than a decade of her thought and ranges over a diversity of subjects giving a true measure of the wide focus of her interests- the brothers Grimm; William Burroughs; food writing, Elizbaeth David; British writing- American writing; sexuality, from Josephine Baker to the history of the corset; and appreciations of the work of Joyce and Christina Stead.
