Thomas Ligotti is 70 - The man who thought life was monstrous...
This Hungarian article by András Molnár discusses the work of Thomas Ligotti, Reggie Oliver, Matt Cardin, Matthew M. Bartlett, Mark Samuels, and me (Jon Padgett). I'm linking the translation, which is hit or miss. In particular, the title is translated as "Thomas Ligotti is 70 - The man who thought life was awesome, and that made him a pioneer of the weird." "Awesome" here is in the monstrous/awful sense! Thomas Ligotti is 70 - The man who thought life was awesome, and that made him a pioneer of the weird | |||||||||||
"Thomas Ligotti is a master of a different order, practically a different species. He probably couldn’t fake it if he tried, and he never tries. He writes like horror incarnate.”
—Terrence Rafferty, New York Times Book Review
