Sobre aquest llibre

Hidden away, buried, in a dark underground city deep under the ocean, Cthulhu is older than the sun and the stars. Like nothing that has ever walked the earth, he is part man, part dragon and part octopus; he is a being of unimaginable cosmic proportions: beholding his form is enough to drive the sanest man into the lowest pits of hysteria and despair. Although he is near impossible to find, even for the most devout and deranged of his followers, he has the power to find you: he has the power to invade your dreams and unhinge your thoughts forevermore.

Sobre l'autor

H. P. Lovecraft, born Howard Phillips Lovecraft on August 20, 1890, in Providence, Rhode Island, is a towering figure in the realm of weird fiction and horror literature. Despite facing economic hardships and personal struggles, Lovecraft's prolific writing has left an indelible mark on the genre. His works, characterized by their intricate mythologies and cosmic horror, delve into the insignificance of humanity in the vast, indifferent universe. Lovecraft's creation of the Cthulhu Mythos, a pantheon of ancient, god-like beings, has inspired countless authors, filmmakers, and artists, cementing his legacy as a pioneer of modern horror. His influence extends to contemporary writers such as Stephen King, Neil Gaiman, and Guillermo del Toro, all of whom have acknowledged Lovecraft's impact on their work.However, Lovecraft's legacy is not without controversy. His xenophobic and racist views, evident in both his personal correspondence and some of his writings, have sparked significant debate and criticism. Modern readers grapple with the duality of his contributions to literature and the problematic aspects of his worldview.Despite these contentious elements, Lovecraft's revolutionary ideas about the unknown and the unknowable continue to captivate audiences. His ability to evoke a sense of dread and wonder through his unique blend of science fiction and horror ensures that his work remains relevant and influential in the 21st century. Lovecraft passed away on March 15, 1937, but his cosmic horrors live on, haunting the imaginations of readers worldwide.
