Rafael Wrote:Something Sir Clarence might be specifically interested in:
I lately read all the book by Gustav Meyrink - Dunsanyan fantasies from the 1910s in Germany - as part of my job.
I doubt they have been translated into any other language, but for Germans, they are worth a look.
In short, Meyrink anticipates Lovecraft.
Thanks for the pointer, Rafe. I read Der Golem sometime in the mid 80s, but back then it didn't appeal to me for whatever reasons. Perhaps I should give it another try.
