PGM Library: Midnight Rambles: H. P. Lovecraft in Gotham – Book Talk with David J. Goodwin

June 8 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

Local author David J. Goodwin discusses his recent book on groundbreaking and controversial horror author, H. P. Lovecraft.

Midnight Rambles explores Lovecraft’s time in New York City, a crucial yet often overlooked chapter in his life that shaped his literary career and the inextricable racism in his work.

Drawing from primary sources (letters, memoirs, and published personal reflections) and secondary sources (biographies and scholarship), Midnight Rambles develops a portrait of a talented and troubled author and offers insights into his unsettling beliefs on race, ethnicity, and immigration.

Date: Saturday, June 8, 2024
