Going Nowhere and Angela Carter
Oct. 12th, 2016 05:44 pmIdeally i was going to go over to Canterbury to do a visit - but as things went belly up,awry,and fizzled out, this did not happen.So after the free breakfast tomorrow i will do the visit once i done one in Bromley as it cannot be done before four in the afternoon.
A number of reasons cumulatively put the breaks on the visit today. Oversleeping was one, lunch at midday, afternoon siesta and listening to BBC Radio 4 were the others. With the breakfast tomorrow once done i will be out on my way.
I have been catching up with Eggheads and last night watched University Challenge on catch-up. On the radio the Book Of The Week is a bio of Angela Carter and the author was on Woman's Hour today.
The biography is called "The Invention Of Angela Carter"
"Edmund Gordon's illuminating biography about one of English literature's most inventive writers. This is the first authorised biography of Angela Carter since her death almost twenty five years ago. Edmund Gordon has interviewed close friends, collaborators, lovers and family members, and had access to her journals, letters and manuscripts and so created a vivid portrait of her unconventional and extraordinary life."
