Hey /lit/, first of all, I want to say that you and /sci/ are far more entertaining than I thought. I'm a /b/tard you see, but I have never paid any heed to the other boards. I'm happy I came out of my shell. The intelligent conversation you and /sci/ provide is a breath of fresh air from the insanity of /b/. ANYWAYS, I just picked up Lovecraft's "At the Mountains of Madness" and I am enjoying it so far. What are Lovecraft's other "essential" works? I want to start reading him.

That charming little yarn in which the esteemed author denoted his domesticated feline one "nigger" elicited a riotous uproar of hilarity from the bottom of my belly good show!

Why is it that every single one of /lit/'s favourite authors is either a Jew or an anti-Semite?

Because Europe was, for most of history, largely anti-semitic.

I've read two stories so far, and I'm wondering Is there any point in reading all his works, or should I just read the premier ones?

How does it come that so much brilliant people criticize the jews. That they as a people have been kicked out of every part of the world.

Surely the jews have no part in it, the entire world is just anti semite.

He had such a shit life, and made one of the biggest positive marks on dark fiction without even getting to see the results of his accomplishments. Whenever I hear or think about this, I can't help but feel sorry for the poor bastard. I wish he were around today, in one of those Mi-Go brain jars so he could see how important his life was to us.

RIP H. P. Lovecraft
A true bro.
