"...jag kan inte låta bli att omläsa den emblematiska The call of Cthulhu från 1928 i denna praktfulla utgåva med François Barangers illustrationer." - Jonas Thente, Dagens Nyheter
"Den nya utgåvan av Cthulhu vaknar från Fria Ligan är ett riktigt samlarexemplar av en tidlös klassiker. Fans av kosmisk skräck bör göra plats för denna i sin bokhylla."- Daniel Rydelius, Varvat
H.P. Lovecraft är en av den amerikanska skräcklitteraturens allra största författare. Med sina noveller om kosmisk skräck, uråldriga gudar och fasansfulla kulter i Massachusetts 1930-tal har han varit stilbildande och hyllats av bland annat Stephen King och Guillermo del Toro. Kanske mest känd av Lovecrafts alla berättelser är Cthulhu vaknar (The Call of Cthulhu) som här återges i sin helhet med målningar av närmast filmisk kvalitet av den franske konstnären François Baranger. I Frankrike har boken gjort succé och sålt slut första upplagan på några veckor. Nu kommer den på svenska i ett lyxigt och påkostat storformat. Lovecrafts klassiker har aldrig tidigare varit så här vacker.

»H. P. Lovecraft är 1900-talets absolut främsta skräckförfattare.« Stephen King
Cthulhu vaknar och andra skräckberättelser samlar ett fylligt urval noveller av skräckens mästare, H. P. Lovecraft. Här finns tidiga berättelser som »Alkemisten«, »Polaris« och »Juan Romeros övergång« tillsammans med odödliga klassiker som »Färg bortom tid och rum«, »Viskningar i mörkret« och »Skuggan över Innsmouth«. Cthulhu vaknar och andra skräckberättelser är därmed en oumbärlig volym för alla som älskar skräck i allmänhet och Lovecraft i synnerhet. Utgåvan innehåller även författarens essäer »Några ord om ett icke-väsen« och »Anmärkningar om att skriva fantastisk litteratur«. I översättning av Arthur Isfelt.
H . P. LOVECRAFT [1890-1937], född i Providence, Rhode Island, var en amerikansk författare känd för sina skräck-, fantasy- och science fiction- noveller. Båda Lovecrafts föräldrar led av psykisk ohälsa, vilket kom att prägla hans ungdom. Han började skriva tidigt men hade en begränsad läsarskara under sin livstid. I dag betraktas Lovecraft som en ikon inom populärkulturen och anses vara en av 1900-talets mest inflytelserika och nyskapande skräckförfattare, ofta jämförd med Edgar Allan Poe. Denna utgåva är framtagen i samarbete mellan Modernista och Hastur förlag.

NYÖVERSÄTTNING
I sitt hus i R’lyeh döde Cthulhu väntar drömmande
På en torrlagd havslätt, bland döda fiskar och aldrig tidigare skådade havsvidunder, står en monolit med fasansfulla inskriptioner. På Tempest Mountain har något dödat etthundrafemtio människor. Våren 1927 börjar konstnärer och poeter över hela världen drömma om något monstruöst och uråldrigt som vill vakna och återigen bringa jorden under sitt välde.
Att läsa H.P. Lovecraft (1890-1937) är att stiga ner i ett febrigt mardrömslandskap. I Lovecrafts noveller är världen beslöjad. Och de krafter som hotar bakom en tunn fernissa av rationalitet har skrämt generationer av läsare och inspirerat skräckmästaren Stephen King.
Innehåller:
"Dagon"
"Den lurande skräcken"
"Cthulhu vaknar"
"Färg bortom tid och rum"

När Randolph Carter i sina drömmar förvägras tillträde till en underbar och sällsam stad blir han besatt av tanken på att återkräva sin vision. Beslutsamt trotsar han de tabun som avhåller människorna från att söka drömmarnas jordiska gudar, i deras fäste på det okända berget Kadath. Genom att träda ner för den djupare sömnens trappa kommer Carter till drömvärlden, kanske den värld som formats av summan av alla drömmar, och här tar en dramatisk odyssé sin början. Ty det är inte alla som vill hjälpa Carter i sökandet. Och vem kan ana den hånande och gäckande Nyarlathoteps avsikt ? de vansinniga och viljelösa gudarnas budbärare, som ständigt och obevekligt följer Carter i spåren. Howard Phillips Lovecraft (1890-1937) har blivit en av skräcklitteraturens mest mytomspunna gestalter, och hans kulturella inflytande över såväl litteratur som film, och på senare år även rollspel och dataspel, har med tiden blivit mycket stort. Sökandet efter det drömda Kadath hör till hans märkligaste verk och är den sista av hans tre romaner som översatts till svenska. Något av en konstbok, gediget illustrerad av Jens Heimdahl, som också presenterar författaren och analyserar berättelsen.

Något ruvar bland Vermonts obebodda berg och hemsöker de täta skogarna - något som befinner sig långt utanför radien för vår allmänna kunskap och tro. De som återvänt efter att ha vågat sig in i skogarna och uppför otillgängliga sluttningar, in i djupa raviner eller halvt bortglömda dalar, har skymtat ohyggliga gestalter och hört upprörande röster bland kullarna. "Stålsätt er när ni läser detta, för det kommer att chockera er. Vad jag säger är emellertid sanningen och inget annat. Sant är detta - jag har sett och rört vid en av varelserna, eller en del av en av varelserna. Gode Gud, min vän, detta är ohyggligt. Den var självfallet död. En av hundarna hade fått tag på den, och jag hittade den i närheten av kenneln i morse. Jag försökte bevara den i vedboden för att övertyga folk om alltsammans, men den upplöstes helt och hållet på några timmar." Vad är det för varelser som nattetid rör sig kring Henry Akeleys ensligt belägna gård? Så fort månen är dimhöljd eller frånvarande skäller hans hundar ohyggligt. Om morgnarna ser han färska, besynnerliga kloavtryck och på nätterna finner han sig under belägring. "Viskningar i mörkret" (1930) är en av Lovecrafts mest omtyckta och inflytelserika skräckberättelser. Här presenteras den i oavkortat skick med ett efterord av Martin Andersson. Utgåvan innehåller dessutom essän "Vermont - ett första intryck" (1927).

One of the masters of 'weird fiction', H. P. Lovecraft expanded the vast boundaries of the horror genre with his vividly imagined stories of exotic and fantastical otherworlds, nightmarish dreamscapes and the supernatural terrors lurking beneath the surface of small-town America.The shadow of New England's witch-hunting past hangs over many of the tales, as in 'The Shunned House' and 'The Dreams in the Witch House', in which malevolent spectres return to haunt the region. Others, such as 'From Beyond' and 'The Shadow Out of Time', depict the catastrophic results when cosmic channels of time and space are opened, while stories such as 'Polaris' and 'The Doom that Came to Sarnath' portray the downfall of mythical civilizations.

'Loathsomeness waits and dreams in the deep, and decay spreads over the tottering cities of men. A time will come - but I must not and cannot think!' H. P. Lovecraft (1890-1937) was a reclusive scribbler of horror stories for the American pulp magazines that specialized in Gothic and science fiction in the interwar years. He often published in Weird Tales and has since become the key figure in the slippery genre of 'weird fiction'. Lovecraft developed an extraordinary vision of feeble men driven to the edge of sanity by glimpses of malign beings that have survived from human prehistory or by malevolent extra-terrestrial visitations. The ornate language of his stories builds towards grotesque moments of revelation, quite unlike any other writer.This new selection brings together nine of his classic tales, focusing on the 'Cthulhu Mythos', a cycle of stories that develops the mythology of the Old Ones, the monstrous creatures who predate human life on earth. It includes the Introduction from Lovecraft's critical essay, 'Supernatural Horror in Literature', in which he gave his own important definition of 'weird fiction'. In a fascinating contextual introduction, Roger Luckhurst gives Lovecraft the attention he deserves as a writer who used pulp fiction to explore a remarkable philosophy that shockingly dethrones the mastery of man.
