    "The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents."
    
    A derelict ship adrift in the Pacific. An artist haunted by fantastical, sinister dreams. A police inspector confronting the diabolical rites of a depraved cult.
    
    As Francis Wayland Thurston delves deeper into these seemingly random events, he uncovers disturbing evidence of an ancient, alien God-like entity named Cthulhu and pieces together the terrible truth: Cthulhu, capable of driving humans to madness, lurks deep beneath the sea, ready to be called into being by those who don't understand the power or the danger of what they have unleashed.
    The Call of Cthulhu is a foundational work of cosmic horror that explores themes of forbidden knowledge, the lurking dread of the unknown and the weakness of the human mind when confronted by powers and intelligences from beyond our world.
    
    Though virtually unknown and financially unsuccessful during his lifetime, H.P. Lovecraft (1890-1937) is now regarded as one of the most influential 20th-century writers of supernatural horror fiction. Widely credited with inventing the "cosmic horror" genre—fiction that explores humanity's insignificance in the face of vast, unknowable cosmic forces—he also created the "Cthulhu Mythos", a shared universe of ancient alien beings and forbidden knowledge that has influenced generations of horror and science fiction writers
