Gothic Nz The Darker Side of Kiwi Culture

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'.Kavka, Misha is the author of 'Gothic Nz The Darker Side of Kiwi Culture', published 2006 under ISBN 9781877372230 and ISBN 1877372234.
