Descriere Macabre Stories (Arcturus Ornate Classics)

This elegant hardback edition presents H. P. Lovecraft's classic short stories, featuring deluxe cover embossing and gilded page edges. In this volume are collected H. P. Lovecraft's earliest stories that have their own unique qualities that sets them apart from the better known Cthulhu mythos. The strong influence of Edgar Allen Poe on these stories comes through to create a series of terrifying tales. Ranging from the petrifying Dagon to the playful parody of Ibid., the Macabre Stories provide a fascinating introduction to the classic horror writer. The selection in Macabre Stories represents the beginning of Lovecraft's career as a horror writer. They follow the period up to the early 1920s when he was still developing his own style. These stories range from fantasy stories inspired by Lord Dunsany to riffs on the Gothic horror genre of the day and demonstrate how the young man developed into the iconic horror writer he became.
