The works of H.P. Lovecraft are widely recognized for their unrelenting atmosphere of existential dread. But in writing her Lovecraftian new novel Winter Tide, availble now from Tor.com Publishing, Ruthanna Emrys also found something stranger in his work: optimism.

Howard Phillips "H. P." Lovecraft (August 20, 1890 � March 15, 1937) was an American author who achieved posthumous fame through his influential works of horror fiction. Virtually unknown and only published in pulp magazines before he died in poverty, he is now widely seen as one of the most significant 20th century authors in his genre.
Excerpt-As was natural, the Arkham papers made much of the incident with its collegiate sponsoring, and sent reporters to talk with Nahum Gardner and his family.

He was a lean, genial person of about fifty, living with his wife and three sons on the pleasant farmstead in the valley.
