Acerca de esta escucha
Beyond the Wall of Sleep, written by H.P. Lovecraft in 1919, is a fascinating blend of science fiction, cosmic horror, and metaphysical exploration. First published in Pine Cones in 1919 and later in Fantasy Fan in 1934, the story reflects Lovecraft's early fascination with dreams, the human mind, and the mysterious realms that exist beyond physical reality. It serves as an example of Lovecraft’s ability to merge speculative ideas with an evocative, dreamlike narrative.
The tale follows an unnamed narrator, an intern at a mental hospital, who becomes intrigued by a patient, Joe Slater, a troubled man from the backwoods of the Catskills. Slater’s violent outbursts and visions of a celestial battle suggest a connection to a higher, otherworldly plane. Using a fictional “etheric wave” device, the narrator attempts to link his consciousness with Slater’s, embarking on a journey into an ethereal world where thoughts and dreams take on cosmic significance. Through this device, the story delves into themes of duality, transcendence, and the vast, unknowable universe beyond the confines of human existence.
