H.P. Lovecraft

6,438 books19.6k followers
Howard Phillips Lovecraft, of Providence, Rhode Island, was an American author of horror, fantasy and science fiction.

Lovecraft's major inspiration and invention was cosmic horror: life is incomprehensible to human minds and the universe is fundamentally alien. Those who genuinely reason, like his protagonists, gamble with sanity. Lovecraft has developed a cult following for his Cthulhu Mythos, a series of loosely interconnected fictions featuring a pantheon of human-nullifying entities, as well as the Necronomicon, a fictional grimoire of magical rites and forbidden lore. His works were deeply pessimistic and cynical, challenging the values of the Enlightenment, Romanticism and Christianity. Lovecraft's protagonists usually achieve the mirror-opposite of traditional gnosis and mysticism by momentarily glimpsing the horror of ultimate reality.

Although Lovecraft's readership was limited during his life, his reputation has grown over the decades. He is now commonly regarded as one of the most influential horror writers of the 20th Century, exerting widespread and indirect influence, and frequently compared to Edgar Allan Poe.

Es una pena que le haya dado una calificación tan baja a este libro.

Lo compré lleno de esperanzas por una lectura aterradora, pero conforme avanzaba me percataba que los cuentos elegidos no eran los más adecuados. No son malos, pero definitivamente no generan lo que esperaba.

Hay un par dignos de mención, pero en general fueron cuentos que dejaron mucho qué desear. Habiendo tanto material, eligieron cuentos que no te meten en el ambiente terrorífico.

Eso sí, estéticamente es un gran libro. Me encanta el detalle de páginas negras y letras blancas.

Es triste para mí dar una calificación tan regular a una antología con varias obras maestras del terror, pero debo admitir que hay cuentos mtalísimos, por lo menos para mí, que arruinan una mejor calificación.
La edición vale mucho la pena, hojas gruesas negras con tinta blanca sobre ellas, da ese sabor a sombrío necesario.
Lo recomiendo bastante, solo salten los cuentos que no les estén gustando.

Tiene algunos relatos interesantes, así como también hay otros que no valen tanto la pena. La presentación del libro es bonita, pasta dura y hojas negras, creo que esta bien.
