Goth Chic: A Connoisseur’s Guide to Dark Culture
Customer Review: excellent overview of goth - from literature to culture
When I first heard about this book, I thought it would be extremely patronizing, or a puff-piece at best. However, I checked out some of Baddeley’s other works and was impressed, so my hopes for this one were great. He didn’t disappoint. “Goth Chic” chronicles the gothic movement from its inception to modern day. Along the way, Baddeley touches on literature, film, music, and the Goth subculture. Intelligent without being stuffy, and very well-written, “Goth Chic” comes highly recommended to anyone interested in the macabre and the sublime.
Customer Review: Another Baddeley Book
I like Gavin Baddley’s books even though I am not really satanic. He described the subjects in his books pretty acurrately. I also like the pictures in his books, something you don’t really see in adult books.
