Howard Phillips Lovecraft est sans nul doute l'auteur fantastique le plus influent du XXe siècle. Son imaginaire unique et terrifiant n'a cessé d'inspirer des générations d'écrivains, de cinéastes, d'artistes ou de créateurs d'univers de jeux, de Neil Gaiman à Michel Houellebecq en passant par Metallica. "Le mythe de Cthulhu" est au cœur de cette œuvre : un panthéon de dieux et d'êtres monstrueux venus du cosmos et de la nuit des temps ressurgissent pour reprendre possession de notre monde.

The world is increasingly unthinkable, a world of planetary disasters, emerging pandemics, and the looming threat of extinction. In this book, Eugene Thacker suggests that we look to the genre of horror as offering a way of thinking about the unthinkable world.

In the Dust of This Planet explores these relationships between philosophy and horror.

Our most imaginative literary minds have been devoured by these incredible creatures and produced exciting, insightful, and unflinching new works of zombie fiction.
