King in Yellow
About This Novel
[Lovecraft's enlightenment work, the source of inspiration for the Cthulhu Mythos! Hastur, the Great Old One, appears! ] Robert Chambers was born in 1865. He studied painting throughout his life, wrote horror novels in his early years, and changed to historical novels in his later years. Whether it is painting or writing, he has achieved some achievements, but he will never be famous in history. Originally, such a person would be forgotten by people after his death and disappear into the torrent of history. It happened that the book "The King in Yellow" he wrote in his early years deeply inspired a reader: H. P. Lovecraft. "The King in Yellow," a series of indirectly connected short stories with the same background - a strange forbidden book that invites panic, madness and horrific tragedy when read carefully... I was deeply impressed by the strange and terrifying elements Mr. Chambers used in this work. However, he failed to continue It's a pity to develop in this field - it is not difficult to become a world-famous master with his talent. "The King in Yellow" was written in 1895, and when Lovecraft began to write his horror literature in 1914, he had Chambers and Poe in his mind. Out of love, Lovecraft introduced this mysterious figure in yellow robes named "Hasta" in many of his stories. Many people mistakenly believe that the "King in Yellow" is a character written by Lovecraft, but this is not the case. Chambers may still be unknown and few people remember him, but "The King in Yellow" has followed the rise of Cthulhu culture and stood in front of the world again.
