H. P. Lovecraft: Selected Essays. Due for shipping 1st August 2019 from Necronomicon Press and pre-ordering now. “His best and most representative essays” in 300 pages. Assembled by S.T. Joshi, but there’s no mention of annotations or expanded annotations by him. The Collected Essays set from 2005 does have annotations.
I think the cover art is meant to look distorted, and its strange stretching upwards is meant to convey ‘weirdness’? Because if I try to fix it in Photoshop, the type is squished and stretched in turn and the background elements don’t look right.
Also new and shipping on the same date, a 66-page booklet, Ex Libris Miskatonici: A Catalogue of Selected Items from the Special Collections in the Miskatonic University Library. A guide to the Library’s special collections and details of each of the key books.
