Re: The Benighted Path: Primeval Gnosis and the Monstrous Soul by Richard Gavin

Hello Michael, I ordered the standard edition and received my copy some weeks ago (I'm in UK), so it's definitely released now and worth chasing up with the publisher if yours hasn't arrived yet.

Re: Lovecraft and Mythos anthologies? There's so many.

An anthology that had a big effect on me was H. P. Lovecraft's Book of Horror edited by Stephen Jones. I was a teenager about the time it came out and had been introduced to HPL by a friend who...

Re: wabi and sabi

I believe the concept is a quite ambiguous and nuanced one. From memory, it is a Japanese mind-set and aesthetic based on impermanence, imperfection, austerity and a rustic simplicity amongst other...

Re: Depression arising from not exercising creativity/concepts of catharsis

Citalopram seems to be the "go to" drug on the NHS. A couple of people I know have been prescribed it and they stopped taking it in the early stages as it made them feel rough. However I'm lead to...

Re: Tom G. Warrior interview and thoughts

Eparistera Daimones, Melana Chasmata, Monotheist are all albums I listen to repeatedly. Bordering on obsessively. There is something in the tone of the guitars and the production.. literally the...

Re: Favorite Campbell

He is a very prolific author, I haven't read nearly enough. I've got a pile of books yet to read by RC, a lot to look forward to.

Cold Print is excellent. His youthful tales have atmosphere,...

Re: Video Games

Bloodborne would be my game of the year so far (if you are lucky enough to own a PS4).

The gameworld is incredible. A dark horror fantasy setting, blending 19th century stylings and gothic vibes...

Re: Dreaming Out of Space: Kenneth Grant on Lovecraft

I've read a couple of Kenneth Grant's Typhonian Trilogy books. As a non-occultist, the impression they gave me was a curious mixture of deliberate invention and reality. At first it's kind of like...

Re: Is A Penguin Classics Ligotti Reprint Forthcoming?

Yes, the best single book to reprint would be The Nightmare Factory, or even better something similar to it but expanded. My copy clocks in at 551 pages. But agreed, this may be too much to ask for.

Re: catholic and eclectic corner

I agree with this. I remember reading Robert Anton Wilson talk about doing something similar in The Cosmic Trigger, possibly going so far as to fully immerse oneself in that worldview. I haven't read...

Re: WSJ article: "Here’s Why H.P. Lovecraft Matters More Than Ever"

Just read the article.

"For every complaint about Lovecraft’s writing style being convoluted or too florid.."

Klinger seems to almost be apologetic about HPLs "off-putting" prose. This...
