pickThe Dreams in the Witch House is probably my favorite short story from Lovecraft. Very easy to read, imaginative and the way they shift between reality and dreams is very well written.

I went a bit mad at Quicksilver Records! But, I've been looking for those Mott the Hoople albums for ages, as well as the Reed/Cale "Songs for Drella", a Warhol tribute that I foolishly didn't get on release, and a Brubeck. The others are all wild cards, which I hope I'll like! The book connection is through late '60s psychedelic rockers, H.P. Lovecraft and their "best of" album, Dreams in the Witch House.

so-soThis tale has some excellent elements, but I think it is weakened by the long, overly-detailed descriptions HPL sometimes includes. Usually these relate to describing alien physiology or strange geometry. I like those elements in general, but not when they detract from the plot and become boring. Speaking of the plot, it was interesting and quite good as a horror read. The ending was the best part descriptively, if unsurprising.
