Synopsis

"The Cthulhu Mythos" is known as the greatest and most influential system of horror novels in the 20th century. The author is H. P. Lovecraft - or "Lovecraft". Suppose there is an ant crawling next to your feet. You will not care whether you step on it or not, because it is too small. Whether it is dead or alive has no effect on you. In the eyes of the ancient evil gods described in the "Cthulhu Mythos", humans are like ants. The "cosmism" advocated by Lovecraft means that human beings are far from being the masters of the world. In the unknown universe that has not yet been explored, there are unimaginable and unspeakable horrific truths hidden. Just a glimpse of them can make people fall into madness or death. As the author himself said: "The oldest and strongest human emotion is fear; and the oldest and strongest fear is the fear of the unknown." This book contains four classic short stories and short stories with the best reputation and the highest popularity in the "Cthulhu Mythos", including "At the Mountains of Madness", "The Haze of Innsmouth", "The Rat in the Wall" and "The Shadow Beyond Time". Open a story at random and arouse your inner fear of the dark. "Staying in the leeward shadow of the Crazy Mountains, you have to keep your imagination in check." The stars have reached a certain position, and the Great Old Ones are about to reappear on earth.

I read the physical book for two hours and finished it on Pomodoro. There is no doubt that it is a masterpiece.

For physical books, I recommend the version from the author's publishing house. This translation is relatively average.

Looking for a Study List for OC People

I would like to read a book similar to "Jungian Psychology". Are there any OC references or books to study? I prefer Jungian psychology/personality typology. Others can also be recommended. Religion, writing skills, mysticism, psychology, and design can all be recommended.
