Description: " The Love of Ruins is an excellent study of Lovecraft's work and philosophy Its tone and its method both refresh the reader." -- Journal of the Fantastic in the Arts "This book is aimed at literary scholars or serious readers already familiar with Lovecraft but will be of interest to scholars of fictional religions or philosophers of religion wishing to explore the constructive possibilities of Lovecraft's cosmic pessimism." -- Religious Studies Review " The Love of Ruins ranks among the small handful of the very best Lovecraftian analyses. Erudite, sophisticated, and insightful, this volume is a pure joy to read. A must have for anyone interested in Lovecraft or the field of dark fantasy." -- Gary Hoppenstand, author of Clive Barker's Short Stories: Imagination as Metaphor in the Books of Blood and Other Works
