Discovering H.P. Lovecraft

A Classic Returns

Sicec its initial publication in 1977 as Essays Lovecraftian, this book has been one of the best resources for readers who want to learn more about the writings of H.P. Lovecraft. Its contents include:

• Fritz Leiber's "A Literary Copernicus", which explores Livecraft's cosmicism, and which, after more than fifty years, remains one of the lost lucid critical pieces written about Lovecraft.
• Robert Bloch's "Notes on an Entity" is a touching tribute to the master from a disciple who went on to become a master of horror fiction himself.
• "The Four Faces of the Outsider" by Dirk Mosig, an exploration of one of Lovecraft's great stories in the light of various schools of psychological analysis.
• "The Derleth Mythos" by Richard Tierney, the initial attempt to seperate the genuine Lovecraftian concepts of the Cthulhu Mythos from those of later followers.
• "H.P. Lovecraft: the Books" by Lin Carter, the definitive guide to the imaginary (and not so imaginary) books of Lovecraft's Mythos, from the Necronomicon to Unausprechlichen Kulten and beyond.
• And more...
