Synopsis "The House on the Borderland (Warbler Classics Annotated Edition) (in English)"

Two friends on a fishing trip discover a manuscript that chronicles a tale of cosmic horror in the ruins of an oddly shaped house at the edge of an abyss in a remote Irish landscape. The manuscript describes the apparent descent into madness of its author, a recluse who, according to his strange account, witnesses the destruction of the solar system and time itself. The House on the Borderland is a singular work that transcends Gothic-style psychological haunting to introduce a modern, evocative blend of horror, science fiction, and fantasy. This Warbler Classics edition includes the first-edition annotations and a detailed biographical timeline.

Nació en 1875, hijo de un clérigo de Essex, y desde muy temprano se hizo a la mar como tripulante de barcos mercantes. No obstante, Hodgson aborrecía aquella vida, y en cuanto tuvo ocasión la abandonó para dedicarse a otras labores y a escribir relatos llenos de misterio, terror y aventura, ambientados muchos de ellos en el mar, un mar peligroso y lleno de entidades monstruosas y barcos abandonados. A pesar de que durante años la obra de Hodgson permaneció en el olvido a causa de su temprana muerte en Francia, durante la Primera Guerra Mundial, truncándose así su carrera literaria, autores como H.P. Lovecraft, que hablaba con entusiasmo de su novela sobrenatural La casa en el confín de la tierra (en esta misma colección), o Clark Ashton Smith lo reivindicaron como maestro (junto a Ambrose Bierce y otros) de la naciente escuela norteamericana del Horror Sobrenatural.
