Description
This week we chat about H.P. Lovecraft’s The Call of Cthulhu, written in 1926 and published in a pulp magazine in 1928. Lovecraft is considered to be one of the pioneers of horror and sci-fi writing and has influenced countless other writing and story-telling of the same genres. But is The Call of Cthulhu an entertaining monster/horror story or a highly problematic piece detailing the author’s harmful views? And should it even still be read and counted as a classic? This and more in this week’s episode. Connect with us on Instagram @throughthepagespod!
