In 2002, Hippocampus Press published Eyes of the God, a selection of R. H. Barlow's fiction and poetry. Barlow's ascending reputation during the past two decades, as one of the most brilliant members of the Lovecraft Circle, has necessitated this radically expanded edition, which includes many more works of fiction, among them several additions to Barlow's intriguing "Garoth cycle" of fantasy tales. In addition, Barlow's vibrant writings during his years in Mexico led to some striking narratives about Mexican and Native life in his adopted country.
Additional poems by Barlow have also been found, including those that display his increasing devotion to the Activist school led by Rosalie Moore, Lawrence Hart, and others.
But the most significant additions in this volume are Barlow's two dozen essays, ranging from memoirs of Lovecraft (including his lively reports of Lovecraft's stay at his Florida home in 1934); essays on H. G. Wells, Henry S. Whitehead, and other weird writers; his moving and insightful autobiography; and a vivid account of his witnessing a bullfight in Mexico.
All told, this definitive compilation of the totality of R. H. Barlow's writings reveal a dynamic mind that saw both beauty and wonder in the people and environment he experienced in his short thirty-two years of life.
