Carter, Angela (1940–1992)

English writer of the magic realist school. Her works are marked by elements of Gothic fantasy, a fascination with the erotic and the violent, tempered by a complex lyricism and a comic touch. Her novels include The Magic Toyshop (1967) (filmed in 1987) and Nights at the Circus (1984). She co-wrote the script for the film The Company of Wolves (1984), based on one of her stories. Her last novel was Wise Children (1991).

Shaking a Leg: Collected Writings and Journalism, edited by Jenny Uglow, was published posthumously in 1997.
