Angela Olive Pearce (formerly Carter, née Stalker; 7 May 1940 – 16 February 1992), who published under the name Angela Carter, was an English novelist, short story writer, poet, and journalist, known for her feminist, magical realist, and picaresque works. She is mainly known for her book The Bloody Chamber (1979). In 1984, her short story "The Company of Wolves" was adapted into a film of the same name. In 2008, The Times ranked Carter tenth in their list of "The 50 greatest British writers since 1945".

Background

Visiting

The English rock band Wolf Alice takes its name from the short story of the same title, published in The Bloody Chamber, which founder Ellie Rowsell supposedly stole from her school library. Another English band, The New Eves, is named for The Passion of New Eve, which band members Kate Mager and Ella Russell were studying when they met at university.
