The New Lovecraft Circle
Price invokesSusan Sontagon camp, andJacques Derridaon writing, to support his incisive view of what works and what doesn't work in contemporary Lovecraftian fiction.The basic idea of a Mythos tale . . . is an interior skeleton like a mammal's, a frame on which to grow . . . It forms the baseline against which the new variations may be measured.  It is not a denial of flexibility; it is something to be flexiblewith.Preface byRamsey Campbell, fascinating introduction by Price, beautiful cover art by Gahan Wilson, and 26 tales by Campbell, Lumley, Sutton, Wagner, Tierney, Lupoff, Ligotti, Burleson, Rainey and others. No overlap with previous anthologies.--This text refers to theHardcoveredition.
