Description

For more than four decades, S. T. Joshi has been a prominent figure in the field of weird fiction-as author, editor, scholar, and reviewer. He is chiefly known for his work on H. P. Lovecraft, and he has prepared corrected and annotated editions of Lovecraft's fiction, poetry, essays, and letters, along with such critical and biographical studies as H. P. Lovecraft: The Decline of the West (1990) and I Am Providence: The Life and Times of H. P. Lovecraft (2010). Joshi has also written pioneering criticism of the entire range of weird fiction, in such books as The Weird Tale (1990) and Unutterable Horror: A History of Supernatural Fiction (2012). He has compiled editions of such leading authors of weird fiction as Lord Dunsany, Algernon Blackwood, Ambrose Bierce, and Arthur Machen. In addition, he has written some of the most incisive reviews in the field, as well as a small but choice array of detective and horror fiction. This compilation presents a full bibliography of Joshi's 300 books, along with lists of his articles, reviews, fiction, and poetry, along with an introduction that provides an overview of Joshi's work. This is the essential guide to one of the most prolific and influential authors in the field.
