...the armfuls of arum lilies that filled my bedroom in great glass jars…lilies with the heavy pollen that powders your fingers as if you had dipped them in turmeric. The lilies I always associate with him; that are white.
And stain you.

"Reading a book is like re-writing it for yourself. You bring to a novel, anything you read, all your experience of the world. You bring your history and you read it in your own terms."

I will vanish in the morning light; I was only an invention of darkness.

Here is another radio play directed by Glyn Dearman, who played Tiny Tim in the classic Scrooge in 1951. His 1980 version of The Company of Wolves is rather wonderful.

Book recommendation. “The Bloody Chamber” by Angela Carter. Want to read a collection that gives a darker take on famous fairy tales? Try this. And be sure to read “The Company of Wolves” too. #bookrecommendation #AngelaCarter #TheBloodyChamber
