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. She joins us today to talk about this unexpected, unexplored side of the Mythos.
Set in the fictional town of Arkham, Massachusetts, an unnamed narrator investigates a local area known as the 'blasted hearth.' After failing to extract any information from the Arkham locals, the narrator encounters an old man, Ammi Pierce, who relates the story of a farmer who once lived there. The hearth, he claims, was caused by a meteorite that fell onto the farmer's field in 1882. The Color Out of Space is one of H.P. Lovecraft's best-loved and most critically acclaimed stories. According to the author, it was also his personal favorite.
