Mae'r gyfrol Gothic Music - The Sounds of the Uncanny yn olrhain synau Gothig drwy straeon ysbryd y ddeunawfed ganrif, traciau sain ffilmiau, rhaglenni teledu a gemau fideo hyd at gerddoriaeth dywyll yr is-ddiwylliant Gothig.

"Isabella van Elferen's book is original, witty, and provocative. Her approach is anything but reductive, as her epigraph--"Il y a plenty de hors-texte"--suggests. She considers music in a variety of media and her analyses are engaging and refreshingly jargon-free. This is a work that enters boldly into critical debate and is not afraid to speculate on broader philosophical issues. Van Elferen brings insights from the discipline of musicology into the field of gothic studies and, in doing so, very much enriches it."--Emma McEvoy, Westminster University
