“Poetry and the Gods”
1920-09-00
short story
By H. P. Lovecraft

Synopsis

The words of a modern poet bring the acient Greek gods back to life.

History

First publication: The United Amateur, September 1920

Written by H. P. Lovecraft and Anna Helen Crofts.

Review

More of a prose poem than fiction. This is okay, but reads more like Lovecraft’s poems, and offers little to the reader looking to explore Lovecraft’s fiction. Recommended only to the Lovecraft completist.
