  Lovecraft Short Stories 
   
  H.P. Lovecraft, also known as Howard Phillips Lovecraft, was an American writer who excelled in horror, fantasy, poetry, and science fiction, particularly in the subgenre of weird fiction. He is widely considered as the leading authority on frightening, eerie, and unsettling stories. This list features seven tales by Lovecraft, showcasing his writing prowess across his entire career - from works written when he was a young teenager to others that were only published posthumously. These stories are unique in their own way, but all stem from the same imaginative mind that gave us the "Cult of Cthulhu" and other memorable, strange works that have captivated generations with their ability to tap into our innermost fears. Some of these tales delve into the depths of the human psyche, while others delve into the depths of human depravity and terror.

  Too Gentlemanly - An Elizabeth...

  Mr. Darcy: Controlling, arrogant, enraging… unfairly handsome. 
  Fitzwilliam Darcy had grown unused to female society during his five years of seclusion since Georgiana had her illegitimate child. That was why he accidentally insulted Mrs. Bingley’s sister. And why he kept thinking about her. When Georgiana became pregnant with Wickham’s child, Darcy had not made her marry the man Colonel Fitzwilliam found to preserve her reputation. She had begged him not to, and Darcy would do anything for his sister. He would even attend the Hertfordshire assembly with Mr. Bingley, because Georgiana wanted him to enjoy society. Bingley’s neighbors had refused to let a fallen woman like Georgiana amongst them. Darcy would not pretend to be pleased to meet them. 
  Elizabeth thought Mr. Darcy was a grand philanthropist: His rudeness provided everyone with a handsome and rich man to hate. But why, if he was actively determined to sneer at all the company, had he bothered to attend their assembly? Still, he was a very handsome man. 
  Darcy needed to overcome his bad first impression if he wanted Elizabeth. But he was rich, handsome and clever. It would be easy.
