The Shadow Over Innsmouth
H. P. LovecraftDavid WeigelYears ago I heard a Christmas parody song about "The Shadow Over Innsmouth" called "It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Fish-Men." If I hear absolutely any Christmas song, the Lovecraft song jumps back into my head. To be clear: This is good, I like it.

The Sacred Fount: Novel
Henry JamesDavid Weigel"Worst thing collected in the Library of America" would be a really unpopular prompt. I strongly disliked "The Breast" but that first Henry James novel he disowned is probably worse.
