Description
Unutterable Horror: A History of Supernatural Fiction by S. T. Joshi explores the evolution of supernatural fiction from the early twentieth century to the present day. This second volume in Joshi's landmark history focuses on the "Golden Age of weird fiction," a period marked by an extraordinary efflorescence of innovative writing. Authors such as Arthur Machen, Algernon Blackwood, and H. P. Lovecraft elevated the genre to a level of high artistry, influencing generations of writers to come. The book also examines the work of later authors, including those who continued to push the boundaries of the genre in the decades following Lovecraft's death.
