About this book

At thirty, Randolph Carter loses the key to the gate of dreams, and this short story follows a man whose well-meaning companions have talked the wonder out of his life. The opening recalls the cities he once visited by night, such as Thran and Kled, and the river Oukranos. H. P. Lovecraft's tale first ran in Weird Tales in January 1929, and its title names a silver key. Carter appears in several of Lovecraft's stories.
