Given Lovecraft’s interest in astronomy, and his use of it in fiction, this new 28 minute BBC Radio 4 documentary might interest — Frankenstein’s Moon (“Listen Again” online in the UK)…

“Did the Moon shining into Mary Shelley’s bedroom in June 1816 play a part in the genesis of her Frankenstein story? Adam Rutherford explores this and other influences cast by astronomical phenomena on the work of writers and artists, such as Galileo’s painter friend Ludovico Cigoli, Arthur Conan Doyle, and modern Sherlock creator Mark Gatiss.”
