    Extractions: From archive (archive) From: hsu@uicsrd.csrd.uiuc.edu Subject: COLD PRINT by Ramsey Campbell Date: 30 Dec 87 21:12:00 GMT Review of COLD PRINT by Ramsey Campbell Ramsey Campbell was one of the second generation of Lovecraft disciples. His first book, the Inhabitant of the Lake and Less Welcome Tenants (trust Arkham House anthologies to have cutesy titles), was published when he was in his teens and has been out-of-print for years. I was ecstatic to find that Cold Print (published by TOR) contains a number of stories from that book, since I've wanted to look at those stories for a long time and was told (five years ago) that the first edition of Inhabitant would cost about $30. Cold Print also contains later stories, most of which have some hint of a Lovecraftian flavor. As in most of Campbell's books, there's a detailed introduction on why certain stories were included/excluded, and the source ideas for some of the stories. I've always felt that Campbell's best stories are his painfully obscure ones. Most Lovecraft disciples/imitators have no idea how to handle foreshadowing effectively; their "subtle" hints are like the KKK leaving 8 foot high burning crosses on people's lawns. Campbell's hints are relatively obscure: a newspaper headline that's quickly glossed over (in Cold Print), or maybe a small snippet of a conversation. Also, in the most effective Campbell stories, he tries draw the reader into experiencing the traumatic event, rather than describe it from a distance like Lovecraft and his lesser imitators. Campbell includes some passages from his first published story, "The Church in High Street", that were deleted from the final version when August Derleth "edited" it. They're really overwritten and funny. Even the finished story and some of the earlier material from Inhabitant are awkward and campy. To his credit, the teenaged Campbell tries to invent new monsters and situations that are significantly different from those rehashed endlessly by lesser Lovecraft imitators such as Brian Lumley (most of Campbell's monsters are not dark amorphous blobs, for instance). However, he was still trapped by the web of "Lovecraftian" rhetoric that he felt obliged to generate. Most of the stories from Inhabitant looked very dated to me (though some are campy and a lot of fun to read, and some of the monsters are rather original). Even "The Render of the Veils", which Campbell considers a milestone in his liberation from the Lovecraft style, seemed rather unsatisfying. "The Inhabitant of the Lake" itself disappointed me mainly because I had read Campbell's own analysis of the castration imagery in it and had very high hopes for it. Most of the story failed to convey the dreamlike atmosphere of the climatic sequence. "Before the Storm", written much later, is fairly close to the traditional Lovecraft plot structure, but has a gruesome last scene that somebody should steal for a movie (maybe John Carpenter?) Campbell decided not to include "The Stone on the Island" because of its "adolescent sadism", which is too bad because I consider it one of the first effective stories in his new prose style; it's spare, subtle and has another truly gruesome revelation at the end. "Cold Print" is still one of my favorites (originally appeared in Tales of the Cthulhu Mythos) because of Campbell's effective evocation of rundown, depressing urban landscapes. These environments dominate the stories in his '70s collections like the Height of the Scream, with their seedy characters in tenements and slimy garbage. (Unfortunately, Campbell later abandoned this style to write more conventional horror novels.) Despite all its faults, Cold Print is a lot of fun to read, and does reprint some obscure material.
