Lovecraft was brilliant and tragic which I think made him the descriptive writer he was, 2 nervous breakdowns before he was 15 making him somewhat reclusive at times, then died of cancer of the small intestine which is excruciating. and he died not knowing just how much his works would be loved, and in some cases even worshipped over. and much of his works if not all of them are public domain. I watched re-animator, Dunwich, etc. But it was Guillermo Del Toro's constant gushing over HP Lovecraft and a documentary on crackle that ultimately had me reading his works (and listening to them).
shaolinwisdom It was his intention that people build on his work although he could've never dreamed that his work would be the foundation and gold standard for modern horror and the cosmic horror genre. A true master.
@Juggled Lotus yeah...zahn sort of reminds me of the Dutch boy with his finger in the Dam...i get the impression he didn't actually did but was subsumed into the alternate dimension ....
This was the very first story by Lovecraft I read and, immediately after, I knew I had to read more. I have never read fiction by anyone that, while reading, made me look behind my back, alone, in my room
It's these greats like Lovecraft and Poe ,Shakespeare, or even Hg wells that lead to King ,Tolkien , Martin , Hobb , Or Koontz these shall be the ones that inspire the next generation that I consider my self a part of the want no need to write will always break free from the true artist among us
This best describes my lifetime of listening to Metallica. You listen to a musician until you think you know them. You develop emotional connections with the music because it earmarks pages in your life. You hope one day if just for a brief moment to thank them, and express how much the songs have meant to you. Some get to do that, some do not. If I happen to outlive them, I am sure it will hit me like a sledgehammer that they are gone. So often all so many have is...the music...and pages fluttering away in the breeze.. Thank you Mr. Lovecraft , Metallica,, and to the ones who narrated and posted this video.
Free Audio Books for Intellectual Exercise. THEY are the reason I got addicted to audio booking Lovecraft. I once had a pet female Burmese pythons named Mystique Day KTHULHU....I always played "The Call" when I fed her.
whilst the abundance of dust and cobwebs made the place seem more deserted than inhabited. Evidently Erich Zann’s world of beauty lay in some far cosmos of the imagination. Motioning me to sit down, the dumb man closed the door, turned the large wooden bolt, and lighted a candle to augment the one he had brought with him. He now removed his viol from its motheaten covering, and taking it, seated himself in the least uncomfortable of the chairs. havent yet heard it all but its seems very good written and has a sense of comedy to it or at least music to it.
Sometimes it’s difficult to feel bad for Lovecraft given his xenophobia and racism, but knowing that most of his flaws seemed to stem from his emotional, sexual, and mental hardships is nothing short of tragic for a writer so influential and talented. I admire his skill as a horror writer, and I pity the life he was made to live, which he did while believing he was a failure without notable talent.
