The Boats of the Glen Carrig is horror writer William Hope Hodgson's 1907 novel. Written in an archaic style and presented as a true record and account, the story is narrated by a passenger of the Glen Carrig, a ship lost at sea after a supposed collision with a hidden rock. The survivors abandon the sinking hull in two lifeboats, but their most horrific and terrifying experiences are yet to come. The Boats of the Glen Carrig evokes a lost world and gives an engrossing study in human relationships submitted to pressure and fear.

A madcap horror adventure written back in 1907 with monsters with tentacles and a lot of craziness. Overall it was alright although the descriptions went on a bit. ( )

Sure, it has "longeurs," but this Hodgson novel, like all his work, has moments of stark raving terror that make the whole thing worthwhile. To this day, I can't call to mind the chapter about "The Thing that Made Search," without shuddering. And the description of the storm is great (I think Lovecraft said this -- and that that's where I'm getting it -- but he was right). ( )

Me encanta este escritor, y prácticamente todo lo que ha escrito, con pocos altibajos.
Para mí es el escritor definitivo de Horror ambientado en el mar, y es un placer leer su estilo moderno, atemporal, que le dan un valor difícilmente explicable.

Cuando acabas de leer libros como "Los botes del Glen Garrig" realmente te quedas con la sensación de haber hecho un extraño viaje, y eso es para mí impagable.

Sería un grave error que no lo leyeras ;)

This was a surprisingly good book. The language used was quaint but didn’t hamper the story. A good bit of marital language is used but I didn’t find it hard to follow the story. The tale itself reminds me of a H.P. Lovecraft story. The “monsters” are left to your imagination and the atmosphere of the book is otherworldly. ( )

Prior to selecting The Boats of the ‘Glen Carrig’ as my next read on Serial Reader, I was unaware that William Hope Hodgson was a source of inspiration for Lovecraft. In fact, as I devoured the novel, I remember remarking to myself how much it felt like something Lovecraft would write – and no wonder!

The Boats of the ‘Glen Carrig’ is written in first-person point of view and feels largely epistolary in form (though it is actually a travelogue). There is no dialogue and readers only know what Winterstraw writes. The story follows a marooned ship and its crew first as they encounter an odd island and then as they end up stranded in what appears as a Hell on Earth – or in this case, the sea. There, they discover another ship entangled in seaweed for seven years (yeah, I don’t get that either, but hey who’s judging?).

Oddly enough, despite the myriad oddities that those aboard the Glen Carrig encounter, it is the second ship they find that truly bewilders me and crosses me as unbelievable. I’m all for the time of creatures this group encounters, but I cannot fathom how it is possible that so many individuals survived on ship that was, for the most part, dead in the water. I kept waiting and waiting for something to go wrong, for something truly disturbing to happen in regards to the other boat and well… there was nothing.

Even though I feel disappointed by the outcome of things with the other ship, overall I found The Boats of the ‘Glen Carrig’ a fun read. For fans of H. P. Lovecraft, it is a must-read. The Wildside Press publication of this book, as well as several other public domain publications, are available on Amazon, free of charge. An audio version can be found on Librivox, an organization comprised of volunteers that come together to record audiobooks of titles that are in the Public Domain. ( )

MADRE MIA

People may say thou art no longer young
And yet, to me, thy youth was yesterday,
A yesterday that seems
Still mingled with my dreams.
Ah! how the years have o'er thee flung
Their soft mantilla, grey.

And e'en to them thou art not over old;
How could'st thou be! Thy hair
Hast scarcely lost its deep old glorious dark:
Thy face is scarcely lined. No mark
Destroys its calm serenity. Like gold
Of evening light, when winds scarce stir,
The soul-light of thy face is pure as prayer.

Now we had been five days in the boats, and in all this time made no discovering of land.

This is the standalone edition of Boats of the "Glen Carrig", not the Night Shade Press edition which include not only Boats but much additional weird nautical fiction from Hodgson.
