    <body><![CDATA[When I was a freshman in high school I found this book in the school library.  It was my introduction to Lovecraft and his &quot;eldritch&quot; tales of shambling horrors from beyond the stars, haunted childhoods, and fantastical dreamworlds.  I had never read anything like them.  In some way he tap...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/58640600">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I'm not sure if this is the exact book.  This story was included.  I hadn't read Lovecraft before. I have to say I found it kind of silly.  The stories are corny, formulaic, and orientalism and racism abound (Those sinister Russians! The evil Kurds of Brooklyn!).  Stomach that.

Lovecraft’s name is indissolubly linked with tales of ancient, extraterrestrial races and the strange traces they left in antique New England towns, there was a bit more to his literary corpus.
