Bloody Chamber

Well, two days after results day and since I have opted to continue literature, I don't have long to read the three gothic texts :S. I have chosen to start with The Bloody Chamber because out of the two novels it is the shortest and I am lazy. To be honest I don't have high hopes for this book because it is broken up into ten short stories and I think that this will cause the book to either compramise on description or plot itself.

However, the concept of the book is somewhat intriguing. Either it is going to make me see some of my childhood favourite stories in a new and bizarre light, or I'm just going to become more and more annoyed at the author's demonisation of once innocent stories. Oh well, it's only 149 pages- here goes nothing.
