Minneapolis: Angel Bomb Press, 2023. Paperback. Fine. Paperback. Number 50 of 100 copies, numbered and signed by Todd Thyberg. This charming horror chapbook features a short story written by H.P. Lovecraft when he was only fifteen. It was first published in 1905. It's a classic tale of 'fear of the other' with a delightful twist at the end. According to the printer and illustrator: "Drawing inspiration from early pulp novels, I created a series of illustrations that provide a sense of claustrophobia as the protagonist wander lost in the caverns. To help east your fright adn assist you on your journey, a sewn-in (paper) flashlight bookmark is there to help ... My work often centers around 'fear of the other' and I discuss this along with other aspets of the story in the afterword."
