THE THING ON THE DOORSTEP AND OTHER WEIRD STORIES (CLASSICS)
A definitive edition of stories by the master of supernatural fiction
Howard Phillips Lovecraftâs unique contribution to American literature was a melding of traditional supernaturalism (derived chiefly from Edgar Allan Poe) with the genre of science fiction that emerged in the early 1920s. This Penguin Classics edition brings together a dozen of the masterâs tales-from his early short stories âUnder the Pyramidsâ (originally ghostwritten for Harry Houdini) and âThe Music of Erich Zannâ (which Lovecraft ranked second among his own favorites) through his more fully developed works, âThe Dunwich Horror,â The Case of Charles Dexter Ward, and At the Mountains of Madness.
The Thing on the Doorstep and Other Weird Stories presents the definitive corrected texts of these works, along with Lovecraft critic and biographer S. T. Joshiâs illuminating introduction and notes to each story.
For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.
