Lovecraft is a genius. His use of language is old-fashioned and I daresay, very decent, eloquent. Atmosphere and mood is effortless for this man. As someone once told me, he is a genius because he is his best. His imagination expressed in the rich imagery is only a miniscule part. Stories like Descendant and the Unnamable are only few examples of his sensibility. My stupidity imposed conventional plot development formats on these gems. I've learned my lesson!
This fellow is a romantic, through and through. A worthy goal in my book. Last edited by no mulier; 08-13-2007 at 12:03 PM.

I highly recommend reading a couple of biographies on the man as well. He was a fascinating character. I've read two biographies and they both paint very different pictures of him.
The Dream Quest of the Unknown Kadath is one of my favorites- the images he conjures up are just so surreal.
