HP Lovecraft's story, "The Shadow Out of Time" concerns the man who suffers from some sort of breakdown, then revives his former self several years later. What he finds is that he now has vivid "memories" of times very past and very future. These thoughts are instilled in his mind to such a degree that it unnerves him. As time passes, he finds an archeological dig in western Australia, the goal of which he is strangely familiar, and thereby joins that endeavor...
Well done again. This concludes my collection of Weird Tales, although many others are available online, so it may not be my last review. As with other Lovecraft tales, this starts out slow and ominous and progresses to suspense and madness.
