Um rei bárbaro saqueou Roma no ano de 410, e mil e quinhentos anos depois, adolescentes ainda são culpados por isso. Eles não sabem disso. Nem os construtores de catedrais, os escritores de terror ou os engenheiros que agora treinam máquinas em salas escuras sabiam. Todos eles, sem exceção, são personagens do mesmo longo mal-entendido, e esse mal-entendido tem um nome. O nome é Gótico.
Esta é a biografia de uma única palavra que jamais deveria ter viajado tão longe. Começou como um rótulo étnico para um povo germânico nômade, transformou-se em um insulto, foi estampada na arquitetura mais luminosa que a Europa já produziu, saltou de edifÃcios para romances repletos de abadias em ruÃnas e mortos inquietos, saltou novamente para uma geração de jovens com delineador preto e agora paira sobre nossa mais recente criação - a mente artificial que tememos que possa destruir a próxima civilização. Cinco coisas, quase nenhum sangue em comum, um nome emprestado, cada uma batizada em homenagem à anterior por alguém que interpretou a história de forma equivocada.
Com humor seco e recusando-se a aceitar o pânico como verdade absoluta, este livro segue a história palavra por palavra, de Alaric ao algoritmo. É um livro sobre como os seres humanos temem o estranho no portão, dão a ele o nome do último estranho de quem temeram e, então - eventualmente, timidamente - o convidam a entrar e colocam seu nome em uma linha de moda. Os góticos originais, afinal, nunca foram os destruidores que imaginávamos. A piada, como as melhores piadas, atinge a todos.
Uma história de arquitetura, horror, música e máquinas contada através do desenrolar de um caso espetacular de identidade trocada.
Palavras-chave: godos, arquitetura gótica, literatura gótica, subcultura, inteligência artificial, história das ideias, incompreensão cultural
