Happy Belated Birthday, Mr. Lovecraft

I lack the time to compose a fitting tribute to H.P. Lovecraft’s accomplishments, but I direct the reader to James Maliszewski’s excellent article, Lovecraftian Inspirations. On a more whimsical note, I also recommend Selections from H.P. Lovecraft’s Brief Tenure as a Whitman’s Sampler Copywriter by Luke Burns.
