In the thirty years since S. T. Joshi prepared revised editions of H. P. Lovecrafts stories for Arkham House, Joshi has continued to do research on the textual accuracy of Lovecrafts stories, and this comprehensive new edition is the result.For the first time, students and scholars of Lovecraft can see at a glance all the textual variants in all relevant appearances of a story-manuscript, first publication in magazines, and first book publications. The result is an illuminating record of the textual history of the tales, along with how Lovecraft significantly revised his stories after initial publication.The result is the definitive text of Lovecrafts fiction-an edition that supersedes all those that preceded it and should endure as the standard text of Lovecrafts stories for many years.In this final volume, the tales of Lovecrafts final years are presented. The Antarctic novella At the Mountains of Madness is perhaps Lovecrafts most finished work, a superb fusion of weirdness and science fiction that he referred to as cosmicism. The Shadow over Innsmouth is a chilling evocation of the terrors inherent in a lonely New England backwater, while The Thing on the Doorstep and The Haunter of the Dark feature physical horrors with cosmic implications. The Shadow out of Time is the culmination of Lovecrafts portrayal of the vast vistas of space and time-his signature contribution to literature.
