I keep thinking about this one. As a writer in the Lovecraft mythos I often examine my own engagement with his worlds and how I fit. In my stories I always stay within canon and formula while evolving and looking behind the scenes or what happened next. This essay really got my mind working. I write unrelated stories having nothing to do with HPL but the ethyrs he offers are opium-like and keep us coming back again and again as readers, writers, and listeners to the many podcast that bring his work to life. Thanks again!
Houellebecq's final Novel Anihilate 2022 to be published in English Sept 2024. The last book I will ever read. 2 f.... years for a translation!!! I say read - if the world is still here in September! 😮. Introduction by Steven King. Some mash up of the greats!
Grimscribe I love your style of reading. The timbre in your voice and great articulation makes listening to the gems even easier on the ear. I listen to your audio version of The Conspiracy Against The Human Race: A Contrivance of Horror by Thomas Ligotti as I go to sleep. I don't know what it is but that book with its stark pessimism & nihilistic message sends me off to a deep restful sleep haha. Like I can relax as I'm not being bullshitted to or sold some delusional, optimistic message to shut up and buy, buy, buy.
Yeah, I’m in the middle of recording the next section and also writing another story myself. I have less time than I used to, but it’s progressing when I can. Hope all is well
aaaand he's back. And stronger than ever. Great selection!
Good choice, nice one.
Nice to see a good audio version of this essay. Houellebecq is great. Nice work!
Couldn't believe how accurate The Shadow Over Innessmouth was of the hideous atmosphere in the UK tody. Really stunning

Michel Wellbeck, is how his name's pronounced phonetically 🇫🇷
Back with a bang! Yes!
Wasn't familiar with this, thanks for the great reading.
Good to see you back to narrating!

Thanks man! That means a lot. Working on part 2 at the moment. It’s refreshing to read something in almost a conversational tone
@@grimscribe6454 You're most welcome Grimscribe. Have an awesome day mate and I look forward to your future readings! Cheers from Australia.
Literally me.
Thank you thank you!
Any plans to finish this one?
