Publisher Notes
From reflections on jazz and Japan through vigorous refashionings of classic fairy tales to stunning snapshots of modern life in all its tawdry glory, "Burning Your Boats" charts the evolution of Angela Carter's marvelous magic vision in a volume that assembles her considerable legacy of short fiction, including early and previously unpublished stories.
Media Reviews
"'Burning Your Boats'...makes a case for Carter as a writer of range, fills out her profile so that we remember...that she was as comfortable in the short as the long, as inventive with the fictional as the non-fictional."
