This Edition of H.P. Lovecraft's classic tale of scientific experimentation and zombies is well paired with a unique short story collection. H. P. Lovecraft was born in 1890 in Providence, Rhode Island, where he lived most of his life. He wrote many essays and poems early in his career, but gradually focused on the writing of horror stories, His relatively small corpus of fiction--three short novels and short stories--has nevertheless exercised a wide influence on subsequent work in the field, and he is regarded as the leading twentieth-century American author of supernatural fiction.
