What is Come Unto These Yellow Sands about?

From early reflections on jazz and Japan, through vigorous refashionings of vampires and werewolves, to stunning snapshots of real-life outcasts and the glorious but tainted world of 'the rich and famous,' this complete collection of Angela Carter's short stories gathers together four published books—"Fireworks," "The Bloody Chamber," "Black Venus," "American Ghosts" and "Old World Wonders"—with her early work and uncollected stories. 'A strange, compelling book... an undoubted success.' —The New York Times <p>Dora and Nora Chance are a famous song-and-dance team of the British music halls. Billed as The Lucky Chances, the sisters are the illegitimate and unacknowledged daughters of Sir Melchoir Hazard, the greatest Shakespearean actor of his day. At once ribald and sentimental, glittery and tender, this rambunctious family saga is Angela Carter at her bewitching best. </p>
