Beschreibung:
Der US-amerikanische Schriftsteller Howard Phillips Lovecraft (20. August 1890 - 15. März 1937) ist einer der einflussreichsten Autoren im Bereich der fantastischen Literatur. H. P. Lovecraft ist der Erfinder des Cthulhu-Mythos.
"Howard Phillips Lovecraft is beginning to emerge as one of that tumultuous period's most critically fascinating and yet enigmatic figures", writes Alan Moore. But at the time of his death, Lovecraft was maligned by critics and ignored by the public. Leslie S. Klinger reanimates Lovecraft and charts the rise of the pulp writer. Lovecraft's vast body of work-a mythos in which humanity is a blissfully unaware speck in a cosmos shared by ancient alien beings-is increasingly being recognised as the foundation for American horror and science fiction. With nearly 300 illustrations and more than 1,000 annotations, Klinger illuminates every hidden dimension of 22 of Lovecraft's most canonical works.
