Nice review. I read it about 25 years ago during a phase of reading as much Lovecraft as I could find. I enjoyed it but it doesn't stick in my memory as much as some of his best.

Sharing to help this great writer. I loved Jack Sparks, honestly one of the greatest horror novels of recent years for me.

A thermoplastic mask moulded to my head & shoulders, then clamped to a rack for a CT scan.

Next: 6 wks of radiotherapy to wipe out any trace of cancer, while parenting my twin boys

Treatment + somewhere to live by the hospital = survival. Without both, the plan fails.

Want to help? Link in bio 👊❤️
