It's Angela Carter who was one of the best writers ever - she also wrote
The Magic Toyshop (from where my e-mail address is derived). Every
single thing she ever had published has been well worth a read.
The Bloody Chamber is my fave - a feminist re-working of traditional
fairy tales and it's tops.
