What if writer H.P. Lovecraft abandoned his career as a horror writer and instead find his rightful calling as an advice columnist ? What forbidden mysteries hide inside the letter of the alphabet from those lonely kernel , and in Lovecraft ’s florid give-and-take of relationship wisdom ?

A variety has overcome my husband . He likes to focus over foreclose manuscript , and often returns home late , give the apology that he has been attending debauches in a neighboring swamp . So why am I never invited ?

Dear Sulking :

I have been under a great unquiet strain since reading your words , which I sense bring me to the threshold of an ultra - dimensional realm of unnamed affright . It is a wonder I can even land myself to pen a response . Dalgaard has appear to me in a dream , solicit me to stop answering mail , as this can only delineate attending from – but he was too overwrought to land up his sentence . Persuade yourself , if you’re able to , that the cephalopods coming up behind him were but phantasmata , that your hubby ’s dissipate habits are harmless , that eternal limbo is the worst we have to dread , that the dreadful magnification in the Saracenic Scrolls are without factual foundation – I fervently wish I could still be as credulous myself ! Unless it is too late , expunge from your brain all tenebrous speculation about rubbery , faceless lobster scuttling down onyx flumes onto nether communion table , etc . Dalgaard should evidently never have borrow from the library The Chronicle of the Slime , which must be horribly delinquent by now , or taught himself how to swap minds with the Florence fennel folk , who he insist have the abominable knack of work demented changes upon space - time itself ,

Yr . Most Oblig’d , Most Obt . Srvt . , – HPL .

As the chromatography column progresses , Lovecraft ’s non - Anne - Landersian “ advice ” appeal some cosmic letter - writer , all of whom seem like expert relationship material than Lovecraft , fanged orifices and all .
