[Gothic Fiction]

PANOPTICUM has always adored subtle gothic vibes. Every now and again, this sensibility emerges and engulfs us into a frenzy of work. Goth style will never die it seems. A new fiction book has been brought to my attention which has made all these feelings of goth lust swell up. Gothy, moody and brilliantly clever, Audrey Niffeneggerhas blown us away with her new book Her Fearful Symmetry

When I discovered that she is also a painter we all toppled over with jealousy for her talent. Here is a review of her paintings in the Chicago Time Out. Beautifully titled project called 'Elegy for Isabella Blow'

When she is in London you can find her doing free walks and tours of Highgate

Cemetery.

We love it.
