  Cool Air by H. P. Lovecraft - A tale of dark science, and the ghastly mystery that enveloped the Spanish doctor’s attempts at artificial refrigeration. 
  Howard Phillips Lovecraft was known for pioneering cosmic horror—a genre emphasizing the insignificance of humanity in an indifferent universe. Born in Providence, Rhode Island, Lovecraft was a sickly and reclusive child, heavily influenced by classical literature, science, and the works of Edgar Allan Poe and Lord Dunsany. 
  Despite financial struggles and limited literary success during his lifetime, Lovecraft created the Cthulhu Mythos. His most famous works include The Call of Cthulhu, At the Mountains of Madness, and The Shadow over Innsmouth. 
  Though he died in poverty at age 46, his work gained widespread recognition posthumously, shaping modern horror fiction and pop culture.
