Re: S. T. Joshi to Lovecraft's Critics
This is, I hope, my last post on the subject.
The disgraceful use of the racism issue to attack Lovecraft is diminishing, but it is not Lovecraft the one being diminished. The ones attacking Lovecraft are trivializing racism to set a petty vendetta against a long dead writer, undermining the very real and current issues involving racism around the globe and the experiences of those who suffered any kind of abuse due to their race. They are a petty and cowardly lot. | |||||||||||
Your fall should be like the fall of mountains. But I was before mountains. I was in the beginning, and shall be forever. The first and the last. The world come full circle. I am not the wheel. I am the hand that turns the wheel. I am Time, the Destroyer. I was the wind and the stars before this. Before planets. Before heaven and hell. And when all is done, I will be wind again, to blow this world as dust back into endless space. To me the coming and going of Man is as nothing.
