Fireworks by Angela Carter

Here is the ritualism of Tokyo where lovers ponder the intangible reflections of themselves, 'reflections of nothing but appearances, in a city dedicated to seeming', and 'the velvet nights spaked with menace' of a wasted London, poised on the brink of destruction. In these extraordinary tales Angela Carter pinpoints the symbolism of the city streets and weaves allegories around forests and jungles of strange and erotic landscapes of the imagination.
'Fizzing with allegory, symbolism and surprises' - 'The Times'
Angela Carter (1940-1992), Journalist and write, author of novels, poems and film scripts has had her talents much lauded; 'Her imagination was on of the most dazzling this century' - Marina Walker, Independent
