Lovecraft

[Pickles]

How do you go about requesting some H P Lovecraft?

[subterranean]

Hello pickles, you should post this in the book request thread...
I see that some said that Lovecraft is known best as a writer of "weird fiction"?

Cheers

What is this proposed genre of "weird fiction"?
Whose the decider of weird?

[bjortan]

If Lovecraft isn't classified as horror, then the horror genre does not exist. He pretty much invented it, after all (or at least the 20th century version of it).

[Pickles]

Yeah weird it is, and darn good.

Here's a little taste, enjoy.

Oh, it's not for the faint hearted.

Oh, where is that darn newbook thread?

Just finished reading it. It was a nice one, if I can say so.
