Al margen de los numerosos relatos de terror que escrib\u00eda para las revistas de aficionados, H.P. Lovecraft se propuso escribir narraciones m\u00e1s largas apenas en tres ocasiones: En las monta\u00f1as de la locura, La b\u00fasqueda en sue\u00f1os de la ignota Kadath y El caso de Charles Dexter Ward. Esta \u00faltima, la m\u00e1s extensa de las tres, nos relata ?con ese peculiar talento de Lovecraft para crear atm\u00f3sferas opresivas por medio de sugerencias que inquietan progresivamente al lector? la historia del infortunado Charles Dexter Ward, un joven de Providence, trasunto literario del propio Lovecraft, solitario y meditabundo, que se entrega en cuerpo y alma al estudio del pasado, y en particular de la vida y \u00abmilagros\u00bb de Joseph Curwen, un lejano antepasado suyo del siglo XVIII, quien lleg\u00f3 a Providence huyendo de la famosa \u00abcaza de brujas\u00bb de Salem en 1692.
Vali\u00e9ndose de diarios y archivos va desvelando la verdad sobre aquel misterioso personaje, sus secretas e \u00abimp\u00edas hechicer\u00edas\u00bb, y los \u00abprodigios espantosos y preternaturales\u00bb que llevaba a cabo. El caso de Charles Dexter Ward es una narraci\u00f3n inquietante y absorbente que nos conduce directamente al coraz\u00f3n de los tenebrosos mitos de Cthulhu.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
