In Chapter 11 of Daphne du Maurier's My Cousin Rachel, and oh, oh Mr. Philip Ashley…
You really ARE a giant dum-dum of a little boy, aren't you?
Like, I love du Maurier and I've actually managed to not spoil the plot of this one for myself before I read it, so I know we're pre GOTHIC PLOT TWIST - and I can't wait to see how Daphne tortures her characters - but oh. Oh Philip. Such an empty noodle on top of your neck. You could be malevolent or tragic. But right now you're just so oblivious.

“Gothic literature is a popular and enduring genre. The influence in today’s culture can be seen in the popularity of horror, ghost stories and vampire romances. However, the original writers of Gothic literature drew their inspiration from an eclectic range of sources. The development of the genre also coincides with cultural, social and scientific developments in history. Gothic novels have produced some of the most iconic characters and settings in Western literature.”

Neat idea by Jessica Monaco and Mark Algee-Hewitt, at #DH2025, on subgenre mixture within the Gothic novel:
First, train a model to classify text segments into one of eight genres, not including the Gothic (!).
Then, ask the model to classify segments from Gothic novels into those genres in order to obtain characteristic genre mixtures within the Gothic novel.
They obtain radar plots for each Gothic novel that show this mixtures.

I finished "The Broken Girls" by Simone St. James and can recommend it. It's a very atmospheric mystery, set in two timelines (1950 in a boarding school for girls and 2014 in a small town in Vermont).
In my eyes, it also has some gothic-novel-ish vibes because there is a supernatural element included.More about the book:

#bookrecommendation wanted
I am looking for #gothic (horror) novels by contemporary authors. I don't care if the setting is historical (for instance Regency, Victorian or Edwardian) or contemporary.
I am NOT looking for generic horror, but books with a gothic horror feeling.
I already have some books on my wish list, but I'd love to get more recommendations.
Bonus points if the story has queerness.
If you have published such a book yourself, tell me about it.😀 -
