Thomas Ligotti
Acerca de esta escucha
Autore di culto della letteratura americana contemporanea, restio alle attenzioni dei media ma autenticamente seminale - suoi gli incubi che hanno ispirato la prima stagione di "True Detective" -, Thomas Ligotti è unanimamente considerato l'unico, grande successore di Edgar Allan Poe e H.P. Lovecraft. Lontano dalle atmosfere urbane e quotidiane che caratterizzano l'opera di Stephen King, Ligotti fa sua la lezione dei maestri del passato e mette il lettore di fronte a un orrore che non ha forma né volto né contorno, un orrore che non si può dire, a stento pensare, e che ha nell'assoluta indeterminatezza la radice della presa angosciante che esercita sulla nostra immaginazione.
In "Teatro grottesco" l'orrore nasce da seminterrati in cui il buio e l'umido hanno prodotto una vita brulicante che aspetta di insinuarsi nel nostro mondo; da isolate, solitarie fabbriche nelle cui viscere si producono artefatti meccanici dagli scopi imperscrutabili; da catene di montaggio in cui la presenza umbratile di misteriosi supervisori è così schiacciante da trasformare l'uomo in ingranaggio; da cittadine in cui la vita è una messinscena e solo quanto accade sui palcoscenici di una fiera itinerante è reale. Gli abitanti di questo mondo dalla mente impazzita e il cuore selvaggio si muovono in retrobottega fiocamente illuminati, lungo le pareti di bar fumosi, in gallerie d'arte dall'aspetto sinistro, al centro di paludi dove sopravvivono culti antichi e innominabili, tutti alla ricerca disperata di un senso che sembra perennemente alla loro portata e che, pure, è loro perennemente precluso.
In questa geografia che ha perso perfino la precisione toponomastica del New England di Lovecraft, e che si può riconoscere soltanto per il nero del cielo e il grigio della terra, la morte è un canto e la vita un carnevale; di autentico non rimane che l'arte, sembra suggerirci Ligotti, nella cui prosa scabra quanto barocca si celebra, nell'impossibilità ormai di esorcizzarlo, il declino di ogni facile antropocentrismo e, in ultima istanza, dell'Occidente.

Historia
Thomas Ligotti’s debut collection, Songs of a Dead Dreamer, and his second, Grimscribe, permanently inscribed a new name in the pantheon of horror fiction. Influenced by the strange terrors of Lovecraft and Poe and by the brutal absurdity of Kafka, Ligotti eschews cheap, gory thrills for his own brand of horror, which shocks at the deepest, existential, levels.

Historia
His fiction is known to be some of the most terrifying in the genre of supernatural horror, but Thomas Ligotti's first nonfiction book may be even scarier. Drawing on philosophy, literature, neuroscience, and other fields of study, Ligotti takes the penetrating lens of his imagination and turns it on his audience, causing them to grapple with the brutal reality that they are living a meaningless nightmare, and anyone who feels otherwise is simply acting out an optimistic fallacy.

Historia
Strange things exist on the periphery of our existence, haunting us from the darkness looming beyond our firelight. Black magic, weird cults, and worse things loom in the shadows. The Children of Old Leech have been with us from time immemorial. And they love us.... Donald Miller, geologist and academic, has walked along the edge of a chasm for most of his nearly 80 years, leading a charmed life between endearing absent-mindedness and sanity-shattering realization. Now, all things must converge.

In addition to his previously published work, this collection contains an original story.

Historia
From his 1935 debut with "The Universal History of Iniquity", through his immensely influential collections Ficciones and The Aleph, these enigmatic, elaborate, imaginative inventions display Borges' talent for turning fiction on its head by playing with form and genre and toying with language.
