Robert W. Chambers (1865-1933) was an illustrator, novelist, and short story writer. His most famous effort, The King in Yellow, is regarded as one of the most important works of American supernatural fiction. He also wrote historical fiction, several bestselling romance novels, and war and adventure stories. --This text refers to the Audio CD edition.
"The King in Yellow, a series of vaguely connected short stories having as a background a monstrous and suppressed book whose perusal brings fright, madness, and spectral tragedy, really achieves notable heights of cosmic fear in spite of uneven interest and a somewhat trivial and affected cultivation of the Gallic studio atmosphere made popular by Du Maurier's Trilby. The most powerful of its tales, perhaps, is The Yellow Sign, in which is introduced a silent and terrible churchyard watchman with a face like a puffy grave-worm's." - from the Introduction by H.P. Lovecraft.

开头的那首诗很棒 其中的一些故事 现在看起来很俗套 但放在那个时代 很不容易吧 总体来看只能称得上是一般 读起来有些无趣
评分我的童年读物
评分who is the yellow king? Has little things to do with True Detective actually.
评分不寒而栗,脊背发凉
评分短篇小说,真探背景补完,前四篇与黄衣王相关,作为克苏鲁神话的先行者确实有点宇宙恐怖的感觉,但到了后面几篇完全变成了言情小说了啊ˊ_>ˋ
