This paper undertakes a critical analysis of Angela Carter`s The Passion of New Eve (1977). It focuses on the textual representations of sexed experience and connects this with the narrative form of the novel. Carter`s novel produces a textuality of experience in articulation with sexual and subjective transformation. Teresa de Lauretis`s concept of experience provides ways into an understanding of the transformations that take place in Carter`s novel. I also use de Lauretis`s concept of a critical "elsewhere" to inform the question of experience as it emerges in Carter`s text. I suggest that experience is creative and destructive, shaping the layered perspectives of the narrative. Carter writes towards the possibility of other sorts of relations and difference-sexual, perspectival, and subjective?and she takes the reader along to experience an opening of conclusions.
