Book Synopsis
The gothic influence on modern writers such as Angela Carter, Iain Banks and Stephen King is vivid and great as is the effect on the world of film and rock music. Part of the function of this book is to offer some guidance: not in terms of a fixed or definitive set of Gothic characteristics, but rather in giving a framework for questions and explorations.

Table of Contents
Introduction; 1. Approaching the gothic tradition; 2. Approaching the texts; 3. Texts and extracts; 4. Critical approaches; 5. How to write about the gothic; 6. Resources.
