Unicorn: The Poetry of Angela Carter by Angela Carter & Rosemary Hill
Requirements: .ePUB, .MOBI/.AZW reader, 363 KB
Overview: Despite being one of the most influential – and best-loved – of the post-war English writers, Angela Carter remains little-known as a poet.
In Unicorn, the critic and historian Rosemary Hill collects together her published verse from 1963-1971, a period in which Carter began to explore the themes that dominated her later work: magic, the reworking of myths and their darker sides, and the overturning of literary and social conventions.
With imagery at times startling in its violence and disconcerting in its presentation of sexuality, Unicorn provides compelling insight into the formation of a remarkable imagination.
In the essay that accompanies the poems the critic and historian Rosemary Hill considers them in the context of Carter’s other work and as an aspect of the 1960s, the decade which as Carter put it ‘wasn’t like they say in the movies’.
