Lovecraft - The Tomb, A Review and Critique

In the cold, dark recesses of the literary catacombs, one may stumble upon a tale of ghastly grandeur and spectral fascination, penned by none other than the master of eldritch horror, H.P. Lovecraft. It is a tale known as "The Tomb" (1917), which stands as a testament to Lovecraft's early forays into the macabre and the supernatural. The prose, shrouded in an archaic veil and adorned with the ornamentation of the Gothic, beckons the reader into the sepulchral depths of a world beyond the mundane.

Lovecraft - Disgusting Racist in the Room

In the abundant and convoluted corridors of literary discourse, the spectre of Howard Phillips Lovecraft looms large, a figure both revered and reviled. His tales of cosmic horror, teeming with eldritch abominations and the existential dread of the unknown, have left an indelible mark on the genre. Yet, the shadow of his virulent racism and xenophobia taints this legacy, a disquieting reminder of the prejudices that were all too common in his era.
