The book section of the Washington Post this week contained this interesting review:
"A few years back, H.P. Lovecraft was enshrined in the Library of America. But that doesn’t mean you can’t make fun of his eldritch horrors and lurking fears. In
Forever Azathoth: Pastiches and Parodies (Subterranean, $40) Peter Cannon captures Lovecraft’s style deliciously, takes affectionate digs at such horror eminences as critic S.T. Joshi and writer T.E.D. Klein, and even — has the man no shame? — subjects a number of mainstream classics to a hideous cross-pollination. What if P.G. Wodehouse’s Jeeves and Wooster got mixed up in one of Lovecraft’s most famous stories? See “Cats, Rats, and Bertie Wooster,” followed by “Something Foetid.” In “Tender is the Night-Gaunt,” characters from F. Scott Fitzgerald go on a quest for Unknown Kadath, and in “The Sound and the Fungi,” the Compsons sell their pasture to aliens and Caddy marries a Yuggothian, whom she makes very unhappy."
