Howard Phillips Lovecraft (August 20, 1890 - March 15, 1937) was an American author of fantasy, horror, and science fiction, who is now widely recognized as one of the most influential and widely-read authors of popular fiction of all time. Although Lovecraft's readership was limited during his life, since his death he has gained a massive and devoted following of readers who have been captivated by his gripping tales of the supernatural. Amongst scholars, Lovecraft is considered to be an exemplar of a uniquely American strain of gothic fiction, tracing its roots back to Edgar Allen Poe. Deeply influenced by Poe, as well as by Hawthorne, Lovecraft, like his forebears, created an entirely alternate world of sheer imagination that remains one of the most engaging oeuvres of fiction ever created.
Sunken valleys rendered impenetrable by hostile vegetation, wild sabbath around fires on Walpurgis night, nightjar ready to steal the souls of the dying, invisible creature devastating the countryside at night... Far from the grandiose and exotic landscapes of Call of Cthulhu or Mountains of Madness, this short story by Lovecraft takes place in New England, a region dear to the author, where he will place many of his stories.Erscheinungsjahr: | 2024 |
