Synopsis

YOUR ULTIMATE LIFESTYLE GUIDE TO THE MOST ENDURING OF ALL SUBCULTURES - FROM A VOGUE BEAUTY EDITOR

'There's a bit of goth in us all' KATE MOSS

'A celebration of darkness' ANJELICA HUSTON

Amidst the waking nightmares of our times, the melancholy of goth soothes our morbid anxieties. Influencing pop culture at every juncture - fashion, art, music, film, the Kardashians - what was once mysterious is now mainstream.

This is a grimoire for the modern goth, whether seasoned or aspiring, as you navigate the pentagram of life in style. Cradled within these pages lie the secret lives of undead icons throughout the ages, including godmother of goth Siouxsie Sioux.

To illuminate the darkness further, you'll hear from notable goths and goth-coded figures such as Christina Ricci on what films to watch, clothes to don, music to wallow in, and books to take with you to the grave.

I wanted to love this so bad !! Unfortunately it fell a little flat, though was still enjoyable to listen back to.

Quotes

There's a bit of goth in all of us

A celebration of darkness

A celebration of the subculture's long-reaching (and still beckoning) tendrils, one that reminds us why we were ever possessed to wear fishnet tights on our arms in the first place, and why we persisted after Tim Burton movies started to suck
