Beschreibung
"Out of the Aeons" is a 1935 short story by American author H. P. Lovecraft. In 1879 the captain of a ship comes across a mysterious island that seems to have risen from the sea. Upon exploring it, he discovers a strange scroll in the clutches of a long-dead skeleton. After his extraordinary finds are displayed in a museum, the island completely disappears never to be found again. When his findings are linked to a legendary tale concerning a long-forgotten god, many people become interested in the mummy's scroll-but not all are who they appear to be. A classic example of horror fiction by master of the form, "Out of the Aeons" will not disappoint lovers of the genre. Howard Phillips Lovecraft (1890-1937) was an American writer of supernatural horror fiction. Though his works remained largely unknown and did not furnish him with a decent living, Lovecraft is today considered to be among the most significant writers of supernatural horror fiction of the twentieth century. Other notable works by this author include: "At the Mountains of Madness", "The Rats in the Walls", And "The Shadow Over Innsmouth". Read & Co. is publishing this classic short story now as part of our "Fantasy and Horror Classics" imprint in a new edition with a dedication by George Henry Weiss.

Über den Autor
Howard Phillips Lovecraft (1890 - 1937) was an American author who achieved posthumous fame through his influential works of horror fiction. He was virtually unknown and published only in pulp magazines before he died in poverty, but he is now regarded as one of the most significant 20th-century authors in his genre. Lovecraft was born in Providence, Rhode Island, where he spent most of his life. Among his most celebrated tales are "The Call of Cthulhu" and "The Shadow over Innsmouth", both canonical to the Cthulhu Mythos. Lovecraft was never able to support himself from earnings as author and editor. He saw commercial success increasingly elude him in this latter period, partly because he lacked the confidence and drive to promote himself. He subsisted in progressively straitened circumstances in his last years; an inheritance was completely spent by the time that he died at age 46.
