Lovecraft Country Book Review. But… uh, how do i say this with without sounding like a maiden aunt? Deriving its name from horror writer h.p.

A little funny, in a bleak way, and sad, and full of anger, and still hopeful. 'lovecraft country,' which is based on the book, subverts the often racist stories that defined science fiction for something more thoughtful and scary.

Matt ruff’s writing is sophisticated and naturally flows.
