Against the World

While at dinner last night, H. P. Lovecraft was mentioned. Siu Hean was fascinated by the stuffed Cthulhu toy that he recently saw and was surprised to learn that Eunuch* had owned one for quite a while. A stuffed toy with tentacles! When we were at Carrefour later, Anne spotted 'H. P. Lovecraft: Against the World, Against Life' by Michel Houellebecq and she passed it to me. It was only a couple of bucks. So, I picked it up.

*A name Anne had christened on one of our friends. It's already quite a flattering name for him. He's usually called worse.
