Description

An extensive collection of the horror fiction of one of the genre’s earliest, most important writers. Originally written for pulp fiction magazines in the 1920s and 1930s, the popularity of Lovecraft’s tales soared after his early death. Now he is ranked among the likes of Edgar Alan Poe, and his writing has influenced generations of aspiring horror novelists and filmmakers. In colourful locales ranging from decrepit seaside villages to musty, secret-filled tombs to fantastic worlds beyond human knowledge – and comprehension – Lovecraft’s work takes its readers on journeys into depths of human madness and inhuman depravity, showcasing man’s encounters with eldritch monsters and god-like horrors from beyond time and space. Leave the lights on. Includes classics such as “The Call of Cthulhu,” “At the Mountains of Madness,” and “The Shadow Over Innsmouth.” Penguin Random House Canada is proud to bring you classic works of literature in e-book form, with the highest quality production values. Find more today and rediscover books you never knew you loved.
