“That is not dead which can eternal lie. And with strange aeons, even death may die.”
H.P. Lovecraft is considered by many, myself included, to be the ultimate supernatural and horror fiction writer. Joining me to discuss his work and life are Tracy R. Twyman, Kent Daniel Bentkowski, and Todd Campbell.
“The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far. The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age.
Lovecraft’s gravestone rubbing (courtesy of Todd Campbell) reads, “I AM PROVIDENCE“
