Wise Children (1991) was the last novel written by Angela Carter. The novel follows the fortunes of twin chorus girls, Dora and Nora Chance, and their bizarre theatrical family. It explores the subversive nature of fatherhood, the denying of which leads Nora and Dora to frivolous "illegitimate" lechery. The novel plays on Carter's admiration of Shakespeare and her love of fairy tales and the surreal, incorporating a large amount of magical realism and elements of the carnivalesque that probes and twists our expectations of reality and society.

  • Figlie sagge è l'ultimo romanzo scritto da Angela Carter. Racconta le peripezie di due ballerine di fila gemelle, Dora e Nora Chance, e della loro bizzarra famiglia teatrale. Esplora la natura sovversiva della paternità, la cui negazione porta le due donne alla frivola lascivia "illegittima". Il romanzo rivela l'ammirazione della Carter per Shakespeare e il suo amore per le fiabe e il surreale, incorporando una gran quantità di realismo magico ed elementi del carnevalesco che esplora e distorce le nostre aspettative della realtà e della società.
