Questa edizione tradotta di FUNGI FROM YUGGOTH include: Testo originale a fronteNuova traduzione ineditaCommenti e illustrazioni originaliNella riscoperta quasi compulsiva, sempre più estesa, a volte anche arbitraria e disinformata, di cui Howard Phillips Lovecraft (1890-1937) gode da ormai qualche decennio, sono rimaste un po' in sordina le sue poesie. Si tratta di 36 sonetti, scritti con tutti i crismi, ossia in 14 versi con la metrica e le rime, a volte baciate e a volte alternate. Il titolo della raccolta è totalmente lovecraftiano: Fungi from Yuggoth.Questa edizione offre i testi originali inglesi accanto a una traduzione in versi liberi, accompagnata da un breve commento. In Fungi c'è l'anima di Lovecraft. Composta quando già avevano già preso vita i miti di Cthulhu, tra il 1929 e il 1930, questa raccolta di poesie presenta situazioni che gli appassionati di HPL conoscono bene.Nei 36 sonetti da Yuggoth si intrecciano tre livelli: i romantici paesaggi del New England, paesaggi orientali da Mille e una notte, e paesaggi cosmici tra l'affascinante e l'inquietante. Le atmosfere sono crepuscolari, oniriche, incerte, dato che i tre tipi di paesaggio tendono a sovrapporsi e fondersi, e sfumano l'uno nell'altro anche i diversi sentimenti: ammirazione, desiderio, nostalgia, ironia, inquietudine, terrore.

'The thing came abruptly and unannounced; a demon, rat-like, scurrying from pits remote and unimaginable, a hellish panting and stifled grunting, and then from that opening beneath the chimney a burst of multitudinous and leprous life - a loathsome night-spawned flood of organic corruption more devastatingly hideous than the blackest conjurations of mortal madness and morbidity.' Only the expansive imagination of H.P. Lovecraft could conceive the delicious and spine-tingling horrors you will find within the pages of this unique collection. In addition to such classics as The Picture in the House, The Music of Erich Zann and The Rats in the Walls, this volume contains some fascinating rarities: examples of Lovecraft's earliest weird fiction and material unpublished during his lifetime. H.P. Lovecraft's creation of the Cthulhu Mythos has influenced many modern authors, and still remains at the forefront of supernatural literature.
