Lovecraft|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1330146818s/8716987.jpg|13589891]), rather amazing how the themes spring out fully formed; this time an unexpected, innocent encounter with ancient oceanic alien life provokes instant madness, also the barest suggestion that death may not allow escape. (Also evident is Lovecraft's amazing ability to make the reader actively wish for the immediate demise of his narrator almost as soon as said narration begins. This unfortunately works at cross-purposes to the feeling of horror and pity that would be required to make this story really work.) (Moved 2015 review to the individual work Sept. 2017 to make room to review the collection under its own entry.) I haven't had any interest in reading more Lovecraft in a long time, but this has been sitting on my shelf taunting me to pick it up for probably years at this point. For the most part, it's pretty bland compared to other Lovecraft collections I've read, though it admittedly has a much more far-ranging and interesting selection than those other collections. Really, I'd say this is pretty skippable - the only stories worth looking up are The Unnameable, which feels like Lovecraft going after his critics, but in a charming sort of way, and Beyond the Walls of Eryx, which is actually a pretty unsettling science fiction story unfortunately compromised by Lovecraft's racism, which, on that note, I'm definitely done with Lovecraft now. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
