Beschreibung

9 The Djinn in the Nightingale's Eye: Five Fairy Stories Jane Campbell In this chapter, Campbell discusses The Djinn in the Nightingale's Eye: Five Fairy Stories that cleverly subvert the fairy-tale genre, subjecting the form to feminist revision without slipping into the propagandizing Byatt so dislikes. Byatt continues to explore the "wonder, versatile hybrid form" of the "literary fairy tale" that think about human experience and "reflect on the nature of narrative, and of their own narrative in particular."
