A new blog post by S.T. Joshi. News that…
“Hippocampus Press has decided to publish a biannual journal devoted to weird poetry, entitled Spectral Realms [with] reviews and articles on the subject [in addition to poetry] … We hope to have the first issue ready by July [2014]”
Also news of a new scholarly book…
“Bobby Derie’s Sex and the Cthulhu Mythos, a serious and very perspicacious study of this subject. Derie, a young British critic, has analysed not only Lovecraft’s life and work for its sexual overtones and implications, but also the work of Lovecraft’s contemporaries [with publication planned for] later this year [2014] from Hippocampus Press”
Hmmm. Puts me in mind of the old erotic journal, ‘Yellow Silk’, whose byline was: “All persuasions, no brutality’.
I think Lovecraftian sex would involve all of the former and too much of the latter. eep.
