The Library
Enter and enjoy this curated selection of essays, reflections, books, films, series, and music that invite us to explore the hidden psychological structures shaping inner life.
Currently, many of the texts gathered here belong to the early years of my journey tracing the symbolic and psychological connections within the Gothic.
As the process of curating, proofreading, reorganising, and expanding the archive takes time, some rooms may evolve more slowly than others, together with the reading pathways and materials that will accompany them.
The Gothic Descent Library aims not only to publish my own writings but also to offer curated selections of books and artistic works that have deeply moved me over the years.
Alongside Gothic classics and well-known authors, this archive also seeks to shine a light on contemporary voices, overlooked works, and artistic creations that resonate with rhizomatic, symbolic, and emotionally layered ways of experiencing the world.
Like dreams, libraries, and inner landscapes, this archive follows its own rhythms.
