The House on the Borderland is the account of a man, known only as the recluse, who moves into a remote and shunned house and unwittingly finds himself suspended between worlds, traveling through time, and fighting for his life against a siege of misshapen monstrosities.  The author’s sweeping imagination evokes a wide variety of fantastical effects, from eerie intimations of the weird to vivid manifestations of supernatural horror, from fabulous glimpses of otherworldly landscapes to direct combat with non-human assailants of murderous intent.  First published in 1908, the novel quickly acquired a reputation as a rare and visionary example of cosmic horror that would influence and draw praise from H.P. Lovecraft, Clark Ashton Smith, Olaf Stapleton and others.  As gripping and surreal as a fever dream, The House on the Borderland remains one of the most transporting destinations in literature.    With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of The House on the Borderland is both modern and readable.","brand":"Graphic Arts Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51359520260439,"sku":"9781513220383","price":9.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781513220383.jpg?v=1754124896","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-house-on-the-borderland-9781513220383","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
