appalled that a <50 page book took me two whole weeks to read but oh my god the repetition…. would it have killed him to publish a revised version…. otherwise it was an interesting read! i really liked this version of west and how human and haunted he was compared to movie west who seemingly has no thoughts beyond reanimating everything he sees.

love fucked up science as an allegory for queerness even if lovecraft was obviously getting homophobic with it. plus just a really interesting part of horror history being one of the first to depict zombies as cannibalistic as well as being a super interesting entry into the mad scientist & assistant trope
