Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Angela Carter's final novel, "Wise Children," serves well as her swan song. "Wise Childen" is Carter's most unabashedly joyful novel, and in it she successfully makes Shakespeare's comic form her own. The novel ends with a reminder that the night is a time for procreation as well as for death.
