Title: DARK MAGIC: H.P. Lovecraft, Starry Wisdom, and the Contagion of Fear.
Description: Hervules: Three Hands Press, 2020. FIRST EDITION. Custom paper edition as issued; A FINE COPY. The writings of the celebrated American author of weird fiction, H. P. Lovecraft, are known for their groundbreaking innovation, particularly their treatment of 'the other', or otherness. A recurring feature of his stories is an unseen or obscure entity emanating psychic malfeasance, precipitating fear, paranoia, and ultimately mental collapse. This emanative quality, though originating in the medium of fiction, is nonetheless transmissible. Dark Magic explores the contagious qualities of Lovecraft's tales, with their embedded sense of dread and their dismantling of human reason. Smaill octavo. OUT OF PRINT.
