Anna Kavan
“Reality had always been something of an unknown quantity to me.”
Anna Kavan, Ice

Anna Kavan
“She herself did not seem quite real. She was pale and almost transparent, the victim I used for my own enjoyment in dreams.”
Anna Kavan, Ice

Muriel Spark
“To me education is a leading out of what is already there in the pupil's soul.”
Muriel Spark, The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie

Shirley Jackson
“I was pretending that I did not speak their language; on the moon we spoke a soft, liquid tongue, and sang in the starlight, looking down on the dead dried world.”
Shirley Jackson, We Have Always Lived in the Castle

Angela Carter
“Wearing an antique bridal gown, the beautiful queen of the vampires sits all alone in her dark, high house under the eyes of the portraits of her demented and atrocious ancestors, each one of whom, through her, projects a baleful posthumous existence; she counts out the Tarot cards, ceaselessly construing a constellation of possibilities as if the random fall of the cards on the red plush tablecloth before her could precipitate her from her chill, shuttered room into a country of perpetual summer and obliterate the perennial sadness of a girl who is both death and the maiden.”
Angela Carter, The Bloody Chamber and Other Stories
