BBC Radio Production of Major Hodgson Work

Only a few days remain to listen to the complete BBC Radio production of William Hope Hodgson's The House on the Borderland. This is a classic of weird literature beloved by H.P. Lovecraft and many other prominent connoisseurs of the strange. The BBC Radio page here includes the story divided up into compact audio episodes for easy, compartmentalized listening. Given the quality of traditional BBC Radio productions, look for this one to at least have a shot at making it onto CD or purchasable MP3 after some time has elapsed. Then, perhaps, Hodgson will be able to join other greats like M.R. James in the long history of BBC wireless dramas.

The House on the Borderland is a masterpiece shimmering with such eerie brilliance that it demands attention from those genuinely appreciative of the outre. Read it here via Project Gutenberg in multiple text formats. It won't take no for an answer.
