Lovecraft opened the way for me, as he had done for others before me–STEPHEN KINGPreposterous, overblown, absurd in every way - yet with an originality that looks more powerful and convincing each time I dip into it.–PHILIP PULLMANYou need to read him - he’s where the darkness starts–NEIL GAIMAN
About The Author
H.P. Lovecraft
Howard Phillips Lovecraft, born in Providence, RI, in 1870, was a child prodigy, reciting poetry at the age of two and writing his own by six. His grandfather encouraged his reading and stirred HPL’s interest in the weird by telling him his own original tales of Gothic horror. HPL was a sickly child, both physically and mentally and had a nervous breakdown in 1908. From 1917 until his untimely death at the age of 47 (of cancer and malnutrition) he produced many now-classic tales of horror.
