Henry Kuttner is known to the domestic reader primarily as a master of the ironic fantasy story. Many loved the inimitable mutants Hogben, the equally brilliant and greedy for strong drinks inventor Gallagher and many other heroes, partly thanks to whom the Golden Age of American fantasy actually became “golden”. But Kuttner’s literary fate was not at all linear; he published under many pseudonyms in magazines of various thematic focus.
This collection includes works in the genres of mysticism and horror, which make up a significant part of his legacy. Even the very first story by Kuttner to see the light of day, “Graveyard Rats,” is written in the Gothic style. The author was acquainted with the famous Howard Phillips Lovecraft, together with his wife, the writer Catherine Moore, he was a member of the “Lovecraft circle,” and the short stories related to the universe of the “Cthulhu Mythos” are also included in this book. Most of the works in Russian are published for the first time or in a new translation.
