The Starry Wisdom: A Tribute to H.P. Lovecraft

A Tribute to H.P. Lovecraft

Visions of cosmic transformation, mutation, and madness - many inspired directly by the life and writings of H.P. Lovecraft, others reflecting his strangely presentient themes in their own bizarre sub-texts. Here the primal beings of Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos stalk a post-modern landscape of social collapse, ethic cleanings, genetic engineering and nuclear devastation - nightmare prophecies from his pulp pages which have now come chillingly true.

The undercurrents of sexual and ecological displacement which powered Lovecraft's work have finally been laid bare, providing this maligned genius with a long-overdue retospective and revealing him to be a true prophet of the 20th century.
