Sinopse
Características

In the thirty years since S. T. Joshi prepared revised editions of H. P. Lovecrafts stories for Arkham House, Joshi has continued to do research on the textual accuracy of Lovecrafts stories, and this comprehensive new edition is the result.For the first time, students and scholars of Lovecraft can see at a glance all the textual variants in all relevant appearances of a story-manuscript, first publication in magazines, and first book publications. The result is an illuminating record of the textual history of the tales, along with how Lovecraft significantly revised his stories after initial publication.The result is the definitive text of Lovecrafts fiction-an edition that supersedes all those that preceded it and should endure as the standard text of Lovecrafts stories for many years.In this second volume, the tales that Lovecraft wrote immediately after returning to his native Providence, R.I., from two years of exile in New York are presented. The landmark tale The Call of Cthulhu was only the tip of the iceberg of a flood of stories he wrote in 1926-27, which include the two short novels The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath and The Case of Charles Dexter Ward. The Colour out of Space is a pioneering tale that initiates Lovecrafts distinctive melding of horror and science fiction, while The Dunwich Horror and The Whisperer in Darkness are rich novellas simultaneously evoking terrors from outer space and the brooding darkness of the New England backwoods.
