Cathi Unsworth (born 11 June 1968) is an English writer and journalist. After working for Sounds, Melody Maker, and Bizarre, she began writing novels, with The Not Knowing in 2005 and The Singer in 2007, on Serpent's Tail. She also edited its London Noir anthology in 2006.
Her writing is heavily influenced by the late Derek Raymond [1].
She lives in London, where she still works as a journalist, including for Dazed & Confused.
She published in 2023 the book Season of the Witch: The Book of Goth which is about the music genre and the subculture that grew out of it.[5] Mojo's Victoria Segal praised it, saying, it was a "superb history of the dark and all its risings", adding "It's as monumental as its subject, a real temple of love".[5]
