"Funny how we take it for granted that we know all there is to know about another person, just because we see them frequently or because of some strong emotional tie."

Conversation with @Taskerland took me to the Wikipedia page for #RobertBloch where I learned that Bloch had written several stories about #JackTheRipper
The first of these, "Yours truly, Jack the Ripper" cast the Ripper as an eternal being who must make human sacrifices to extend his immortality. This idea resurfaced in Bloch's contribution to the #StarTrek #TOS episode "Wolf in the Fold".
I was familiar with Bloch's #CthulhuMythos work but this I did not know.

A scientist is sizing up Lefty as a human guinea pig (for his experiment that made real guinea pigs vanish):
“Perfect,” he says. “Just as I thought.” Naturally, I like compliments, but I realize I am no Victor Mature³⁵ and I wonder what he is fishing for. So I give him a long look, too.
The tales about #LeftyFeep that #RobertBloch wrote about in the 1940s are full of the culture of the era, and the slang of the society that the always-scheming ex-racketeer moved in. Hence the footnote in the collection, which points to
[35] Victor Mature was the Brad Pitt of the day.
Not the sort of image I expected to get from an old story. #BradPitt #VictorMature

Právě dočteno.
Robert Bloch je u nás známý hlavně díky románu Psycho, o jehož filmovou adaptaci se postaral Alfred Hitchcock.
Tahle povídková sbírka má ale taky co nabídnout, i když některé kousky tak nějak "zestárly" a můžou někomu připadat trochu úsměvné.
Stará škola v rámci fantasy, hororu a sci-fi žánru.
Mimochodem... Robert Bloch byl velkým fanouškem Lovecrafta a dokonce si s ním v 30.letech minulého století velmi aktivně dopisoval. -

He was swimming parallel with the beach now, and with curious detachment he observed that the storm had subsided. A pale, fog-like glow hovered over the lashing waters, and it seemed to beckon.

If "The Spirit of '76" makes you think of Will Eisner instead of America's birthday, you might be a pulp fan.
When you hear "Psycho" and think of Robert Bloch instead of an ex, you might be a pulp fan.
