Summary
Howard Phillips Lovecraft: The Dreamlike Search for the Unknown Kadatum
The Dreamlike Search for the Unknown Kadatum is, although nominally in the form of a picaresque fantasy, parallel to it, it is almost constantly a horror novel filled with monstrous creatures, nightmarish environments and terrifying situations imbued with an oppressive atmosphere of paranoia. abysses, and abysses gape beneath abysses; dark claustrophobia imperceptibly turns into agoraphobia, from cramped dungeons and below decks, hellish landscapes suddenly burst as far as the eye can see, mountain ranges and deserts stretch under dark clouds, and fantastic cities, with countless castles and temples, are labyrinths where beauty and exoticism, quiet chills and smoldering horrors combine.
