But either is really uncalled for. Are we to think of Adele as being so perverted?<BR/><BR/>The Bluebeard tale is definately brought up in JE. I haven't read a GOOD article on it yet... I've read articles on it, but they fail to really examine the text closely enough, so their conclusions are sloppy. I believe Mesrour was one of Bluebeard's guards and is the name of Mr Rochester's horse.

I've read her book called "The Bloody Chamber" where she takes a lot of traditional fairy tales and turns them into adult magical realism tales with ghastly twists. In the book there is one story about Bluebeard's chamber with his dead wives,which is supposed to represent a skeleton in one's cupboard. It reminded me of Rochester hiding Bertha.mysticgypsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17419674376640859205noreply@blogger.com
