“Here lies the lost souls who cling to the decaying beauty of Decadent literature and poetry. A group for appreciators of pessimistic literature that celibates despair, perversity and death. I am no connoisseur of Decadence having being slowly lead here by a trail of that has taken me through the entropic wastelands of the new wave into the cosmic void of horror and back into the forgotten places of the ghost story tradition… So pull up a seat in this decrepit café with other poets and lost souls and discuss decadent literature and poetry and history with the unlike-minded.”

For anyone who is interested in further reading or book recommendations, this is agroup on Goodreads I often submit material to, as well as post discussions and reading lists. Since this blog has become popular beyond all my expectations, I thought maybe you wonderful art historians might like to take a look. Enjoy! And please, submit, by all means!
