Lovecraft is racist and it shows in his work. He’s imaginative and can write ornately which makes his racism especially dangerous. While I can appreciate cosmic horror, the fact that his is inspired by fear of his fellow human beings doesn’t sit well with me. I however love the work recently that takes Lovecraft and turns his work on its head like NK Jemisin’s great city duology and Lovecraft country.
