Angela Carter, from 'The Bloody Chamber and Other Stories'; "Puss-in-Boots"
#sad girl hours#angela carter#the bloody chamber#puss in boots#avd reads#words#love#literature#for context this is the cat talking and hes saying this after his 'master' has let go of his responsibilities due#to a 'love' he feels for someone elses wife - the woman being locked in a tower and covered in a black veil#he continues by saying if he had sex with thr woman hed be over it#idk how it ends but historically what ive read from carter the women have optimistic endings so#im hoping it doesnt continue too badly#i dont agree with the statement - and i dont think angela carter does either#but i think its interesting hownwithin this context its in its an accurate statement - the mans love is most likely fueled by her#unattainability
