| Re: B&N does Lovecraft!!
This is very exciting news, and quite timely. It's a shame that this will not be a truly complete collection, if it will omit the revisions and collaborations. I was hoping for such a volume, since I currently only own Arkham's first volume of HPL, The Dunwich Horror, and was actually actively seeking the remaining volumes when I found this forum and discovered this news. I bought that first Arkham volume long ago and only recently began to actually read it, shamefully. When I decided to get the other volumes, I was saddened to discover they've been reprinted with inferior dust jackets and apparently the previous editions are rather scarce now. For a uniform collection, I'd need to somehow locate those now out of print Arkham hardcovers. I've already got the poetry volume The Ancient Track and two of the five volumes of essays.
P.S.: The completist in me was hoping for an actually complete edition of Lovecraft, since even Arkham's own Miscellaneous Writings does not include two collaborations omitted from the revisions volume. |
