� NO RISK PURCHASE! See Below...! THE FICTION OF H.P. LOVECRAFT COMPLETE & UNABRIDGED Unillustrated Hardcover OUT OF PRINT ~ AGAIN!In the 1920s and ‘30s, H.P. Lovecraft pioneered a new type of weird fiction that fused elements of supernatural horror with the concepts of visionary science fiction. Lovecraft’s tales of cosmic horror revolutionized modern horror fiction and has become recognized as the greatest American writer of supernatural fiction after Edgar Allan Poe, and a leading influence on the modern weird tales.This omnibus collects for the first time in a single volume all of Lovecraft’s groundbreaking fiction: The Call of Cthulhu The Outsider The Dreams in the Witch House The Haunter of the Dark At the Mountains of Madness The Shadow Out of Time The Shadow Over Innsmouth The Colour of Space The Dunwich Horror& the full-length novels The Case of Charles Dexter Ward The Dream Quest of Unknown Kadath and many others (a complete listing is at the bottom of the page). About H.P. Lovecraft (1890- 1937) ~ He began writing poetry and fiction while an adolescent and contributed significantly to amateur press publications. In 1923, he made his first professional sale to Weird Tales, the pulp magazine that would publish most of his fiction. Five years later, Lovecraft published “The Call of Cthulhu,” a story that crystallized his concept of cosmic horror through its depiction of otherworldly monsters that represent the incomprehensible alienness of the universe to human thinking. Lovecraft further developed his unique approach to horror fiction, and created an elaborate mythology of alien creatures, forbidden books, and haunted New England towns to give it shape. The Shadow over Innsmouth, the sole book of his fiction published in his lifetime, appeared in 1936. SPECIAL NOTE: This collection is over 1100 pages long, unillustrated. It had a very short run and went out of print within 2 months of it being published and last November, they were all gone.

I am a private collector of art, books, music (10,000 records alone!) and "stuff" and am very picky about what I buy. I don't like surprises when I buy things from auctions any more than you do. I promise everything there is to know about this item is in this description. I also do not subscribe to "grading" as frankly, grading is totally inconsistent and most of the "graders" TRULY have no clue, so I will use plain English if it is OK with you... *A brand new hardcover book with original unclipped dust jacket in... read more
