The Lovecraftian Thing a Day (2018) No.307: The Emperor of Dreams


Of the Weird Tales triumvirate, probably the figure who has received least exposure here is Clark Ashton Smith - a failing which I hope to rectify in the final weeks of this year’s blog series, beginning with today’s offering, The Emperor of Dreams: a wonderful new documentary concerning the life and work of CAS, directed by Darin Coelho Spring, and produced by Hippicampus Press. This is a truely moving and poignant piece - one which has inspired me to return to Smith’s work, and to finally begin exploring his significant body of poetry.

The Emperor of Dreams is currently available to purchase in DVD format from Hippocampus Press, and as a download from both Vimeo and Amazon.
