Synopsis
Virtually unknown and published only in pulp magazines before he died in poverty, H.P. Lovecraft is now regarded as one of the most significant 20th-century authors in his genre.
Lovecraft was master of the supernatural story, and this volume features almost every work of fiction Lovecraft wrote in his short life. Also included is a well-constructed forward, informative introductory paragraphs to each of the stories, and Lovecraft's famous essay, "Supernatural Horror in Literature".
