Biography:
(1890 - 1937)
American poet and author of macabre short novels, who was virtually unknown most of his career as a writer. Howard Phillips Lovecraft's posthumous fame, particularly in America and France, rests on his 'Cthulhu Mythos' stories. H.P. Lovecraft has become a cult figure in the genre of horror fiction. He is considered the most original American writer of weird fiction subsequent to Edgar Allan Poe. Lovecraft's imaginary town in his tales, Arkham, was based on his home town of Providence.
