A Smith & Jones Book for The British Fantasy Society

Price: £12.99 / $25.99

The British Fantasy Society is proud to announce the publication of H.P. LOVECRAFT IN BRITAIN: A MONOGRAPH, a new limited edition chapbook written by World Fantasy Award winner STEPHEN JONES.

Based on unique access to correspondence and business papers dating back more than fifty years, the author charts H.P. Lovecraft’s convoluted publishing history in the United Kingdom – from the distinctive Gollancz hardcovers, through the various licensed paperback reprints, up to the present day.

H.P. LOVECRAFT IN BRITAIN reveals the often complicated and never-before-told story of how the renowned horror author’s work came to be published in the UK, and along the way reveals new insights into how certain volumes were compiled. It is a fascinating tale, told in the words of the people involved.

Featuring an original full colour cover and interior illustrations by acclaimed British artist LES EDWARDS, the chapbook also includes reproductions of many obscure book covers and rare documents.

Limited to just 750 copies, SIGNED by both Stephen Jones and Les Edwards, H.P. LOVECRAFT IN BRITAIN will be sent to all BFS members as part of their annual subscription. The remaining copies are available at the price of £12.99 / $25.99 each. Dealers please enquire about quantity discounts.
