Contains Howard’s poem “Shadows on the Road”.
Weird Tales from April 1934 contains the first publication of Howard’s ‘Shadows in the Moonlight’, a Conan story. Girasol Collectables did a great replica of the original with scanned text and interior art right from the original pulp pages. No editing. No reset text. I haven’t found that so I made my own from a downloaded PDF-file.
This publication was created to safeguard the copyright of Robert E. Howard’s previously unpublished works. A limited run of 12 copies was produced, with two exclusive editions bound in leather and the remainder as comb-bound paperbacks. The content includes non-Howard material in Swedish, except for Patrice Louinet’s introduction and the “Notes” section, which offers insights into the stories.
Robert E. Howard wrote poetry. He wrote it first in life, last in life, and throughout life. Howard completed around 300 stories for commercial sale and worked on 300 more. But he wrote over 700 poems, virtually none of them meant for commercial markets. His first publication outside of school was his poem “The Sea”, published in a local paper. His famous “All fled, all done…” couplet, borrowed from Viola Garvin, was allegedly the last words he typed. And in between, poetry gushed from him.
This second volume of a three-volume set collects the rest of all of Howard’s known poetry.
