Angela Carter’s short story, The Bloody Chamber, was created by rewriting the fairy tale Bluebeard, which expressed her strong feminist views. Based on the theory of spatial criticism, this paper is meant to interpret the growth of the heroine in The Bloody Chamber. It analyzes the nameless bride’s growth process of searching for her true self in the novel from the three levels: social space, physical space and psychological space.
