So I'm finally reading a work by Lovecraft
#3
RE: So I'm finally reading a work by Lovecraft
I read two collections of Lovecraft (a lot of overlap between the two) and, to be honest, his idiosyncracies as a writer got on my nerves really quickly, particularly his refusal do dialogue (that said, the few occasions he did, he was really bad at it.) It was really antiquated, and not in a good way, but given that Lovecraft was known to backdate his letters TWO CENTURIES (i.e., a letter he wrote on October 13, 1928 would be dated 13 October 1728), this is probably to be expected.

I was born with the gift of laughter and a sense the world is mad.
