Cartoné. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: Nuevo. 02. NUEVA EDICIÓN QUE INCLUYE 32 PÁGINAS A COLOR. Maestros del horror de Arkham House es una antología conmemorativa de los sesenta años de la mítica editorial norteamericana especializada en literatura fantástica y de terror, fundada en 1939 por el escritor August Derleth con el propósito de rescatar del olvido la obra de su amigo y maestro H.P. Lovecraft. La antología reúne 21 relatos de otros tantos autores representativos de sucesivas épocas de Arkham House ?tales como H.P. Lovecraft, Clark Ashton Smith, Ramsey Campbell, Carl Jacobi, Donald Wandrei, August Derleth, Greye La Spina, y muchos otros? seleccionados por el escritor y crítico especializado Peter Ruber, quien introduce generosamente a cada autor con una breve historia de su relación con la editorial, elaborada con materiales de primera mano, como la extensa correspondencia de August Derleth. Durante años, Arkham House ha adquirido una especie de culto leal entre los aficionados a la literatura sobrenatural dentro y fuera de Estados Unidos. Escribir una historia definitiva de la Arkham House sería una empresa gigantesca ?reconoce Peter Ruber en el prólogo a esta edición? En ella debería estar incluida una biografía de su fundador, August Derleth, la historia de la evolución de revistas pulp, como Weird Tales, y varias otras biografías de los escritores clave que publicaron bajo su sello . La información contenida en este libro no intenta, de ninguna manera, ser una historia ?oficial? o ?autorizada? de Arkham House. Es, simplemente, el resultado de un trabajo de cuarenta años de investigación personal sobre la vida y la época de Arkham House, August Derleth y muchos otros escritores que me han interesado a lo largo de mi carrera .
