H.P. Lovecraft – ‘Supernatural Horror in Literature’ Book

$11.94

H. P. Lovecraft (1890–1937), the most important American supernaturalist since Edgar Allan Poe, has had an incalculable influence on all the horror-story writing of recent decades. Although his supernatural fiction has of late been enjoying unprecedented fame, it is still not widely known that he wrote a critical history of supernatural horror in the literature that has yet to be superseded as the most nuanced historical discussion of the genre. This volume presents this extraordinary work in its final, revised text.

By charting so ultimately the background for his own concepts of horror and literary techniques, Lovecraft throws light on his own fiction and the horror literature that has followed in his influential wake.

For this reason, this book will be especially intriguing to those who have read and enjoyed Lovecraft’s fiction as an isolated phenomenon. These and other readers searching for a guide through the inadequately marked region of literary horror need to search no further.

Ths book features a new introduction by Everett F. Bleiler.
