    The Book

    Written by H. P. Lovecraft

    Narrated by Anastasia Bertollo

    About this audiobook

    "The Book" is a story of a guy, who found a worm-riddled book on the coast of the oily black river. There was a list of things to say and do, which the narrator describes as bad and forbidden. It was like an instruction to some gateways of which mystics have always dreamed about. The guy took the book away and it seemed to him, he was followed by someone along the road.

    His life changed significantly since then, he couldn’t understand anymore what year it was or who was in his house. Dogs started to avoid him as he always was followed by some shadows. He crossed plenty of gateways and traveled other worlds a lot.

    What adventures did he have? You are going to recognize soon. Read this doom gloomy tale if you are a fan of horror fiction and fantasy genres.

    A SmartTouch Media production.

    H. P. Lovecraft

    Renowned as one of the great horror-writers of all time, H.P. Lovecraft was born in 1890 and lived most of his life in Providence, Rhode Island. Among his many classic horror stories, many of which were published in book form only after his death in 1937, are ‘At the Mountains of Madness and Other Novels of Terror’ (1964), ‘Dagon and Other Macabre Tales’ (1965), and ‘The Horror in the Museum and Other Revisions’ (1970).

      My mum read this to me before I could read, and later I read it to myself again and again. In the Suffolk countryside where I grew up, I would often spot deer in the fields. This book made me stop and study the animal tracks on the ground and made me
