Beyond the Wall of Sleep

I've a very weird memory attached with this book! I had read this one during those sleepless nights and then, when I went to sleep, I screamed in my sleep. Everyone woke up with a shudder, but I couldn't remember why I screamed. I was probably having a weird dream about the imagery that was described in this book! It deals with paranoia and schizophrenia in a brilliant way! A weird and amazing experience! Classic Lovecraft horror!

Interesting story from H. P. Lovecraft. I enjoyed this one, though not as much as some of his previous works.

Beyond the Wall of Sleep is a pretty short short story - perhaps a bit too short. As the title implies, it explores the what-if regarding the dream world.

The story follows a medical officer's observations of a rustic patient at an asylum, who is prone to outbursts of strange descriptions and exhortations of what appears to be his dreams.

While it has the same style of prose as the other short stories, I can't feel any sort of creepy vibe out of this. It's a nice quick read but it lacks that induced prickly sensation. Perhaps it's the imaginary, since they are not presented as horrifying but instead meant to be beautiful and otherworldly.

I wouldn't recommend this as an entry into Lovecraft's works, as it is somewhat of a different vibe from the others.
