For the album by Tom Harrell see Wise Children (album)'' ''Wise Children'' (1991) was the last novel written by Angela Carter.〔(Angela Carter, 1940–92: A Very Good Wizard, a Very Dear Friend ) by Salman Rushdie〕 The novel follows the fortunes of twin chorus girls, Dora and Nora Chance,〔('Comedy Is Tragedy That Happens to Other People' )〕 and their bizarre theatrical family.
