I know a long reply is unwarranted here, but trust me, you won't be that much happier. The majority of the anxieties regarding sex and intimacy are mostly just a need for validation. Once you realise that you've just been chasing an escape, you'll end up shittier than before because now you have nothing to look forward too.

There is a lot of confusion and debate over the quality of the Gollancz black books, so allow me to clear it up. They come in three versions.

1. Original UK hardcover editions. Decent stitching & covers, good quality, not prone to fall apart. What you'd expect for the list price.

2. Reprint hardcover editions. Made in China and shipped to U.S. Distinctly inferior and weaker. Too fragile for the money.

3. Paperback editions: will turn into a warped phonebook as soon as you flip through it. Avoid.

Some of them, yes. Most of them are as they appeared originally in Weird Tales (which of course involved editing), or are posthumous edits from his archives. The Lovecraft ones are similar. These aren't definitive versions, but they're generally the ones that made the authors popular in the first place.

>> No.11220766

>>11220753
Well, the Weird Tales editions are not always the best. For example, even though they liked to feature naked chicks on the covers, some of Howards more lewd sequences were edited out. If anyone want to read Conan they should get the Del Rey editions.

I agree, the original texts are more accurate, but they aren't the original published ones, so it's a matter of preference (and these are easier/cheaper to pick up). The Joshi-edited HPL is far superior for textual accuracy as well, but there's no harm in starting with a collection of the pulp versions.

>"The more prolonged is Lovecraft's enforced sojourn in New York, the more his repulsion and terror grows until it attains alarming proportions. As he wrote to Belknap Long, "one cannot speak calmly about the mongoloid problem of New York". Later on in the letter, he declares: "I hope the end will be warfare -- but not till such a time as our own minds are fully freed of humanitarian hindrances of the Syrian superstition imposed upon us by Constantinus. Then let us show our physical power as men and Aryans, and conduct a scientific wholesale deportation from which there will be neither flinching nor retreating."

>A sense of monstrous guilt was upon the land, and out of the abysses between the stars swept chill currents that made men shiver in dark and lonely places.

I'm sorry, but that's complete bullshit. Lovecraft's racist xenophobia was profound and well-documented. I don't care about it, but your claim is absolutely wrong. His letters overflow with anti-Semitic conspiracy theories of an underground Jewry pitting the economic, social, and literary worlds of New York City against “the Aryan race.” He warned of “the Jew [who] must be muzzled” because “[he] insidiously degrades [and] Orientalizes [the] robust Aryan civilization.” His sympathies with rising fascism were equally transparent. “[Hitler’s] vision . . . is romantic and immature,” he stated after Hitler became chancellor of Germany. “I know he’s a clown but god I like the boy!” And his contempt for blacks ran even deeper. In his 1912 poem entitled “On the Creation of Niggers,” the gods, having just designed Man and Beast, create blacks in semi-human form to populate the space in between. Regarding the domestic terrorism of white minorities in the predominantly black Alabama and Mississippi, he excused them for “resorting to extra-legal measures such as lynching and intimidation [because] the legal machinery does not sufficiently protect them.” He lamented these sullen tensions as unfortunate, but nevertheless says that “anything is better than the mongrelisation which would mean the hopeless deterioration of a great nation.” Miscegenation permeates his letters and stories as his most corporeal fear; he insists that only “pain and disaster [could] come from the mingling of black and white.” He wrote that “the Negro is fundamentally the biological inferior of all White and even Mongolian races.” Go read “The Horror of Red Hook” again.
