Two lucky Lovecraft eZine readers will win a signed copy of Uncommon Places, by W.H. Pugmire. From the book’s webpage:
Like poison leaked from some acidic brain, this book will haunt you with the language and vision of the lost.
For more than four decades, W. H. Pugmire has delighted and astonished his many devotees with vignettes of perfumed prose-poetry that rival the work of Baudelaire and Clark Ashton Smith. In this new collection, which contains both new and reprinted pieces, Pugmire once again stakes his claim to be the most accomplished prose stylist in contemporary weird fiction. Here we find the shades of Lovecraft, Poe and Oscar Wilde—that dandified British author whose life and work hover over this collection like a sea-mist. We explore the shadows spawned in Sesqua Valley… Providence, Rhode Island… and Gershom, a city of artistic exiles. The title work is an impressive sequence of prose-poems, each segment inspired by an entry in Lovecraft’s Commonplace Book, fusing delicate prose-poetry with the terror that only the landscape of the fantastic imagination can elicit.
As usual, this will be a random drawing, using a random number generator. To enter the random drawing, simply do all the following:
- Become an email subscriber of Lovecraft eZine (top right corner of this webpage, it’s free). If you’re already a subscriber, you don’t need to do anything.
- Comment on a story in the current issue.
- LIKE Lovecraft eZine on Facebook (click here, OR, click the LIKE button on the top right side of this page). If you are one of the five people on the planet not on Facebook, then don’t worry about it, just fulfill the other two requirements.
Next Saturday, March 31, 2012, I will randomly choose two winners! Good luck. Find out more about Uncommon Places, by W.H. Pugmire here.
