Description
Sheridan Le Fanu, scrittore irlandese celebre per le sue storie ispirate alle leggende della sua terra, tra il 1871 e il 1872 pubblica a puntate, sulla rivista «The Dark Blue», questo racconto, nel quale si cimenta invece con un tema tipico del folklore slavo: quello del vampiro. Conferendo alla narrazione i toni di una confessione intima, Le Fanu concepisce l’opera come un racconto che Laura, una donna inglese che vive in un solitario castello della Stiria, fa a un’amica. Anni addietro, una carrozza uscì di strada nei pressi del castello, e una donna, dovendo ripartire urgentemente, affidò sua figlia alle cure del padre di Laura. Straordinariamente bella, languida, con qualche tratto inquietante, Carmilla sembrava uscita dal pennello di un preraffaelita; tra lei e Laura, ragazza casta, pura e dedita al padre, si instaurò un legame quasi morboso. Nel frattempo, una malattia sconosciuta che uccideva giovani donne dopo averle gettate in uno stato allucinatorio-depressivo, imperversava nella regione e colpì anche Laura. Carmilla è uno dei racconti gotici più famosi e affascinanti, per la suspense che riesce a creare, per la sensualità saffica che evoca, e per l’immaginario vittoriano che, soprattutto con la sua rappresentazione duplice e ambigua della femminilità, lo permea.
Questa edizione contiene il testo integrale tradotto in italiano, illustrato e corredato di note.
