Thomas Ligotti is often cited as the most curious and remarkable
figure in horror literature since H. P. Lovecraft. His work is
noted by critics for its display of an exceptionally grotesque
imagination and accomplished prose style. In his stories, Ligotti
has followed a literary tradition that began with Edgar Allan Poe,
portraying characters that are outside of anything that might be
called normal life, depicting strange locales far off the beaten
track, and rendering a grim vision of human existence as a
perpetual nightmare. The horror stories collected in Teatro
Grottesco feature tormented individuals who play out their doom in
various odd little towns, as well as in dark sectors frequented by
sinister and often blackly comical eccentrics. The cycle of
narratives introduce readers to a freakish community of artists who
encounter demonic perils that ultimately engulf their lives.
