For anybody who likes the writings of H.P. Lovecraft there is a new book out by Panu Petteri Höglund based
around the Lovecraft Mythos. For anybody who doesn't know what I talking about, Lovecraft was the first writer
to write those "a horrible entity from another dimension is going to be released from imprisonment" stories.

I think Panu himself writes in Ulster Irish. I'm getting the book myself, so I'll review it afterward on this thread.

Link to evertype's page about the book:

One thing I like the sounds of is literary illusions to other Irish books, something Nicholas Williams does in his
translation of Alice in Wonderland. Here one of the stories is meant to come from a hitherto unknown page
from Cín Lae Amhlaoibh.
