Lovecraft wrote of Gilpin: “He is intellectually exactly like me save in degree. In degree he is immensely my superior - he is what I should like to be but have not the brains enough to be.” 27 of Lovecraft’s letters to Galpin survive and are printed here. They cover a period of more than twenty years and touch on amateur journalism, socialism, Lovecraft’s dreams, his early stories and more. Edited and annotated by Joshi and Schultz, this hefty volume should help to shed some light on a side of Lovecraft previously unexamined. #19567
