And if one doesn't, one should. #sheridanlefanu
Reading a little Sheridan Le Fanu, as one does, and noting that a problem (for me) with UK single-quote-mark style is:

'Gi' me the candle.'

Here’s my artist friend Rachel’s work. We’re all inspired by literature sometimes. We need more writers and poets- More thinkers and dreamers

Carmilla: Queen of Vampires 🦇

Inspired by this quote in Carmilla, a short novella by Sheridan Le Fanu:

“Girls are caterpillars while they live in the world, to be finally butterflies when the summer comes.” 🦋

The golden age of ghost stories was without a doubt the Victorian era. This wonderful anthology contains a nice selection of familiar and less reprinted stories.

#Halloween 🎃 #Reads: #Carmilla by #SheridanLeFanu 🧛‍♀️🩸1872. 25 años antes del Drácula de Bram Stoker y casi 6 décadas tras 'El Vampiro" de Polidori, el escritor irlandés Sheridan Le Fanu publica la segunda novela de la historia con un(a) chupasangre como protagonista.El accidente de un carruaje frente al castillo que la jovencísima Laura comparte con su padre, insta a la familia a acoger a 1 de sus viajeras: una enferma de familia noble de la misma edad de Laura y extraordinariamente bella. Las chicas rápidamente se convierten en inseparables, pero mientras Carmilla muestra claros síntomas de mejoría, Laura ve como su salud se deteriora a diario.De Carmilla sorprende la audacia de su sensualidad, o directamente erotismo, a pesar de no contener ni una sola escena explicita. Entre Laura y Carmilla hay una peligrosa tensión sexual innegable, pero no la calificaría, como aparece en todas partes, como historia de amor sáfica. No hay nada romántico, ni amoroso en esta historia. Laura siente una mezcla de atracción-repulsión por su "amiga", mientras que Carmilla seduce a todxs lxs que la rodean y siente por sus víctimas una suerte de fijación erótica (lo cual no evita que intente matarlas... y Laura no es una excepción). Aunque haya miembrxs de la comunidad queer que la han convertido, comprensiblemente, en un emblema, la novela también puede verse como una advertencia lesbofoba: ceder a los deseos prohibidos se paga con la muerte. Y es que eran otros tiempos.Sin embargo, otra lectura, bastante más en sintonía con nuestro siglo, sería de corte anti-clasista. Al fin y al cabo, Carmilla es una noble que se aprovecha de la amabilidad, confianza y compasión de personas sin título, parasita y se alimenta de ellxs (mejor dicho, de ellas) hasta matarlas sin ningún tipo de remordimiento o compasión. Rich people y/o narcisistas, where are you?De todas formas, sea cual sea la lectura e interpretación que se le de, 'Carmilla' es una breve, sensual y curiosa novela con alguna escena (el ataque a Laura niña) sorprendentemente malrollera....#BookstagramEspañol #Bookstagram #Terror #Vampiros #Vampires #HorrorLiterature #ReadingCommunity #BookLovers

Do you like scary stories? Here's a taste of Sheridan Le Fanu's The Cock and Anchor, one of the first works in the Gothic style. It's illustrated by his son Brinsley:

“But dreams come through stone walls, light up dark rooms, or darken light ones, and their persons make their exits and their entrances as they please, and laugh at locksmiths.”
(Carmilla)

Printed (inkjet because my screenprinting chemicals apparently expired) an old public domain illustration from Sheridan Le Fanu's Carmilla on my homemade paper as a gift. So my paper works!

#art inspired by #Carmilla — Twenty-five years before Dracula, Le Fanu’s 1872 gothic tale gave us the first true #vampire seductress. Dark, atmospheric, and boldly feminist, it reshaped vampire fiction. #inkart #fountainpenart #darkart #SheridanLeFanu #gothicfiction #horrorart
