By the time of her death in 1992, Angela Carter had come to be
regarded as one of the most successful and original British authors
of the twentieth-century, and her writing has subsequently become
the focus of a burgeoning body of criticism. This book disentangles
the cult of Angela Carter as 'the fairy godmother of magical
realism' from her own claims to be a materialist and a
'demythologiser' by placing her within the social, political and
theoretical context within which she wrote. Drawing on Carter's own
autobiographical articles as well as her novels and short stories,
this study examines her engagement with topical issues such as
national (particularly English) identity, class, politics and
feminism, assessing the relationship between her life, her times
and her art.
