Angela Carter and Decadence by M. Tonkin, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

By reading key Carter texts alongside their Decadent intertexts, Tonkin interrogates the claim that Carter was in thrall to a fetishistic aesthetic antithetical to her feminism. Through historical contextualization of the woman-as-doll, muse and femme fatale, Tonkin tests Carter's own description of her fiction as a form of literary criticism. | Angela Carter and Decadence by M.
