Like every great author of Gothic fiction, Angela Carter was blessed with an intensely vivid and extremely dark imagination. Just as Bram Stoker had taken East European folk tales about vampirism and used them in Dracula (1897) to highlight the anxieties that assailed the Victorian fin de siècle, so did Carter take the fairy tales of the 18th and 19th centuries and use them as a framework to address modern issues.

Here, salvation comes in the shape of the heroine’s mother, riding to the rescue and toting a pistol. It is quite fitting, perhaps, that in this modern variation on the fairy tale the sexually aggressive and murderous Marquis should meet his end at the hands of his own mother-in-law.
