Publisher Description
"The Shadow Out of Time" indirectly tells of the Great Race of Yith, an extraterrestrial species with the ability to travel through space and time. The Yithians accomplish this by switching bodies with hosts from the intended spatial or temporal destination. The story implies that the effect when seen from the outside is similar to spiritual possession.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Lovecraftians will hail the publication of H.P. Lovecraft's The Shadow Out of Time, edited by S.T. Joshi and David E. Schultz. Based on the handwritten manuscript that surfaced in 1995 after being lost for 60 years, this edition of Lovecraft's classic tale of time travel and mind transference restores the text as closely as scholarly possible to HPL's original. The editors provide a thorough introduction, annotations and textual notes.
