Description

The King in Yellow is a collection of weird stories by Robert W. Chambers. Writing until his death in 1933, this collection remains his most important work to this day. The overarching theme in these stories is a fictional play that goes by the title "The King in Yellow". Anyone who reads this play, goes insane. H.P. Lovecraft was fascinated by The King in Yellow. So much so that he incorporated it in his own writings. Along with the rising popularity of H.P. Lovecraft in popular culture, The King in Yellow has been named one of the most important works in American supernatural writing. The edition has been lovingly edited for readability.
