Description

For the past decade, S. T. Joshi has been a prolific and controversial figure in the blogosphere. A leading authority on H. P. Lovecraft and weird fiction, Joshi has been at the centre of many developments in the field, aside from writing several landmark works of his own. In this book, Joshi reprints selections from his blog posts, arranging them thematically so that readers can focus on the numerous issues in which Joshi has been involved. See how his history of supernatural fiction, Unutterable Horror (2012), progressed over the years, and how he came to edit the Black Wings anthologies of neo-Lovecraftian fiction. Joshi's contributions to work on such writers as Lord Dunsany, Arthur Machen, Clark Ashton Smith, Ramsey Campbell, Ambrose Bierce, and H. L. Mencken are also chronicled. Joshi has been a vigorous defender of Lovecraft against those who seek to tear him down, and he has written pungent rebuttals of the tendentious writings of such figures as Daniel José Older, Laura Miller, Charles Baxter, Scott Nicolay, and others. Joshi has also defended himself against scurrilous attacks by Brian Keene, Ross E. Lockhart, and others. Author of more than 250 books, S. T. Joshi is one of the liveliest commentators in weird fiction, and this book offers a treasure-trove of some of his most vibrant and penetrating writings.
