After spending more time than he can remember on his own inside a
castle, an enigmatic man resolves to finally escape and seek human
contact and daylight, both of which he has never experienced before.
However, dissatisfied with what he finds on the outside, he hastens
back to his old world inside his castle—to which he is now barred
entry. First published in 1926, "The Outsider" is a short story by
American horror writer H. P. Lovecraft that explores the concepts of
loneliness and the Gothic ab-human. A fantastic example of Lovecratian
supernatural literature not to be missed by fans and collectors of his
seminal work. 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: “The Call of Cthulhu”, “The Rats
in the Walls”, and “The Shadow Over Innsmouth”. Read & Co. is
publishing this classic work now as part of our “Fantasy and Horror
Classics” imprint in a new edition with a dedication by George Henry
Weiss.
