Ikke så verst spennende for å være en "klassiker". Startet med mange veldig korte historier før den tok seg opp og fikk noen som tok ~45 min aktiv lesing å komme gjennom. De siste 30% av bokene er bare ntoater og annet meta.

I was so excited to read this book, knowing nothing of lovecraft except the concept of his books. Unfortunately, his tales are plagued. The longer stories tended to be easier to read because they had less oppressive language.
Overall, one star for whoever put these stories together, the last couple seemed to tie it all up to feel like it was all part of the same flawed world. And one other because I did actually quite enjoy "at the mountains of madness", which was also a considerable portion of the book.
However, if you're looking for cosmic horror, I'd say to look for some more recent work from other authors who aren't going to start aggressively discriminating.
