a| "Angela Carter is known for her daring, disturbing, excessive style, and her efforts to destroy and demystify every social norm. But she is not just daring. With her sharp and subtle sensitivity, she writes as a precursor to disintegrates what has been enshrined by western philosophical tradition as the overarching dimension of human being-temporality/mind. And she perceives that our modern sense of alienation and disorientation is more of a spatial anxiety than a time perplex. In her novels and short stories, she re-examines the interrelation of human and space by unraveling the power discourses inscribed as the representation of space, and provides broader spatiotemporal imagination and possibilities. Focusing on spatiality in her works, this book explores Carter's attempts to criticize, resist and rewrite hierarchical gendered discourse by analyzing it from the perspectives of confining space, specular space and bodily space. Carter tries to build a new model of space which transcends the dominant/dominated paradigm and establish a spatiality-subjectivity totality. This new paradigm overcomes our state of alienation by embracing corporeality and excessiveness, the lived experiences in everyday interactions with space, and a construction of subject of becoming. This book applies to literary critics, professors and students of literature, readers of Angela Carter, and all those who feel trapped by their bodies and space and places"--
