The work of American writer H. P. Lovecraft (1890-1937) is vast and varied. His short stories represent the majority of his bibliography and cover every dark theme imaginable, with his characteristic and bombastic style. The stories contained in this volume revolve around many themes, without losing Lovecraft's particular flavour of cosmic horror and impending doom. To this day he has remained a cult writer, remembered for his prolific imagination, his dark visions of the universe and for bringing horror literature into the new century and the future.
