Publisher's Summary

Two Tales From H. P. Lovecraft includes the American horror writer's short stories, "The Cats of Ulthar", of how a law forbidding the killing of cats came to be in a town called Ulthar, and "The Terrible Old Man", notable as the first story to make use of Lovecraft's fictional New England town of Kingsport. Both were written in 1920.

H. P. Lovecraft (1890-1937) was an American horror fiction writer. Though he died in poverty and was only published in pulp magazines before his death, he is now regarded as one of the most significant 20th-century authors in the genre. Lovecraft was a prodigy, reciting poetry at the age of three, and writing complete poems by six. His grandfather encouraged his interest in the unusual by telling him his own original tales of Gothic horror. Lovecraft's most popular book is, perhaps, At the Mountains of Madness. He also wrote The Call of Cthulhu, along with many short stories and literary correspondences.
