Nights At The Circus
One of the BBC’s 100 Novels That Shaped Our World. A sustained and weirdly wonderful Gothic that's both intensely amusing and also provocatively serious.
Author: Angela Carter
Format: Paperback / softback
Number of Pages: 368
'Angela Carter has influenced a whole generation of fellow writers towards dream worlds of baroque splendour, fairy tale horror, and visions of the alienated wreckage of a future world. In Nights at the Circus she has invented a new, raunchy, raucous, Cockney voice for her heroine Fevvers, taking us back into a rich, turn of the 19th century world, which reeks of human and animal variety' The Times.
