I've been going back the last few months and reading the things before Lovecraft, like A. Machen and R. Chambers. Anyone else read "The Hill of Dreams" or "The King in Yellow"?

Peztopiary posted:The Repairer of Reputations is my favorite story in the King in Yellow book. Something about it works better for me than the more fantastic shorts. I thought that was an excellent story as well. Pistol_Pete posted:"The Hill of Dreams" is pure poetry. Read "A Fragment of Life", if you can find it and "The Three Impostors" or "The Great God Pan" if you want to get back to proper horror. I've read A Fragment of Life and The Great God Pan, those were great.
