Carmilla

really does not have either the epistemological or moral complexity of the other giants in gothic literature but this book is susceptible to an interpretation so disconcertingly anachronistically feminist that it seems almost more relevant to 1970s social politics than 1870s. Like I would not have been all that startled if Carmilla pulled out a Pussy Power enamel pin but maybe that is why Le Fanu is the author and I am writing a goodreads review
