Here’s an excellent BBC radio documentary about H.P. Lovecraft I found on Youtube. For anyone wondering about my fascination with the author, this is a great introduction to his life and work.

Weird Tales: The Strange Life of H.P. Lovecraft

The American author of horror, fantasy, and science fiction, known then simply as weird fiction. Lovecraft’s major inspiration and invention was cosmic horror: the idea that life is incomprehensible to human minds and that the universe is fundamentally alien. Originally aired on BBC Radio in 2006 with contributions from Neil Gaiman, S.T. Joshi, Kelly Link, Peter Straub, China Mieville and others. Divided in 5 parts.
