About Necronomicon

La obra del escritor norteamericano H.P. Lovecraft (1890-1937) es vasta y variada. Sus relatos cortos representan la mayoría de su obra escrita y cubren todos los temas oscuros imaginables, con su recargado y característico estilo. Las historias contenidas en este volumen tratan de muchos temas diferentes, sin perder el sabor particular de Lovecraft por el horror cósmico y el peligro inminente. Hasta nuestros días se ha mantenido como un escritor de culto, recordado por su imaginación extremadamente prolífica, sus visiones oscuras del universo y por ayudar a la literatura de terror a entrar en el siglos XX y en el futuro.
