Oct. 29th, 2013 11:33 am So I discover that Angela Carter -- she of "The Company of Wolves" and The Bloody Chamber -- wrote a book called The Sadeian Woman and the Ideology of Pornography which sounds completely fascinating, and it's not available electronically ANYWHERE. No pirated PDFs, no Kindle edition, not even excerpts that I can find. It's not in the Seattle Public Library system -- they only have Carter's fiction.
I'll probably go ahead and order a copy from Amazon because this sounds like a book worth reading, but I really wanted to have a look at it before I cited it in this blog post. Oh, well. I'll have to make do with reviews.
... I miss academia. I really should look at graduate programs in the Seattle area; I keep forgetting that going to grad school wouldn't necessarily mean moving again, if I play my cards right. (One of the big mental blocks I have about grad school is the prospect of moving, along with the two biggest mental blocks of "what the hell do I even want to study?" and "how would I even pay for it?" I just like Seattle so much! I'm sure there are other places I would like a lot too, like Pittsburgh or Chicago or -- maybe, if I were studying and didn't have to worry about having to "make it" -- New York, but . . . Seattle!)
