Contemporary creative writers, intellectuals, photographers, painters and other artists have all contributed to this volume exploring the idea of "gothic" in New Zealand culture. From Martin Edmond's abandoned houses, to Ian Lochhead's Victorian corrugated iron structures, to Otis Frizzell's tattoos, from Peter Jackson's movie-making to ghost paintings - there's plenty of it. As the editors suggest, gothic is "endemic to New Zealand's self-representation."
