Salon: H.P. Lovecraft is "a hack," "literature's greatest bad writer," "not very scary" (has she even read "The Rats in the Walls" or the Cthulu stories?), Cthulu as "an unpronounceable name," "Cthulu isn't scary," "camp," "purple prose," relying desperately on Joyce Carol Oates' asseessment of "The Colour Out of Space" when she obviously despises Howard's groove, "hasn't the psychological acuity," and not "wholesome at all."
