A forbidden play ruins everyone who reads it to the end. A lost city. A sign you should never have seen.Robert W. Chambers published The King in Yellow in 1895, and weird fiction has been borrowing from it ever since: the cursed play, the city of Carcosa, the Yellow Sign, the Pallid Mask. Lovecraft's circle borrowed from it, and a prestige TV crime drama sent a new wave of readers hunting for the source. This is that source, complete and unabridged, all ten stories.What this edition adds to the text:An original introduction tracing the line from Bierce to Chambers to Lovecraft to todayA headnote before every story, so a first-time reader knows what they are walking intoA Glossary of the Yellow Mythos: Carcosa, Hastur, Hali, the Pallid Mask, the Yellow SignTwelve original illustrations in the decadent style of the Yellow NinetiesThe four Yellow Sign tales come first, from the future-New York nightmare of "The Repairer of Reputations" to the pure dread of "The Yellow Sign." The rest of the collection follows, including the Paris studio stories that show what Chambers could do with love and loss.The scolloped tatters of the King in Yellow are waiting.
