Carmilla Analysis

3 weeks ago 20

Hi everyone! I am in a book club and for our first book we decided to read my suggestion- Carmilla. I hadn’t read it before and I want to make sure our discussion goes well, so I have been diving in to history of vampire symbolism and LGBT identity in the 1800s, going so far as to read about divorce cases from the time when an unmarried female companion has ‘convinced’ her friend to leave her husband. I am wondering if you have any recommendations for leading a book club discussion or any good sources about vampires in history or lgbt identity and representation.

I want to go deeper than the vampire fang as penetration etc.
