Even in the cocoon of an english university town,their relationship evolves into obsession, betrayal,deceit,voyeurism,violence and suicide. This is what love is all about. Angela carter wrote this novel in 1969- in an afterword written more than fifteen years later she follows her characters into the present and provocatively proposes that unrequited love is the essence and revenge of heterosexuality.
