| Synopsis: |
For more than 80 years H.P. Lovecraft has inspired writers of supernaturalfiction, artists, musicians, filmmakers, and gaming. His themes of cosmicindifference, the utter insignificance of humankind, minds invaded by the alien,and the horrors of history - written with a pervasive atmosphere of unexplainable dread - remain not only viable motifs, but are more relevantthan ever as we explore the mysteries of a universe in which our planet isinfinitesimal and climatic change is overwhelming it. In the first decade of the twenty-first century the best supernaturalwriters no longer imitate Lovecraft, but they are profoundly influenced by thegenre and the mythos he created. New Cthulhu: The Recent Weird presentssome of the best of this new Lovecraftian fiction - bizarre, subtle,atmospheric, metaphysical, psychological, filled with strange creatures andstranger characters - eldritch, unsettling, evocative, and darklyappealing. |
