Have you heard of the song of the Hyades in dim Carcosa? Where black stars rise and where flap the tatters of the King in Yellow? No? Well you can read all about it in the fake play 'The King in Yellow' which seems to cause the characters in the stories from Robert Chambers' short story collection 'The King in Yellow' all kinds of troubles.
There are four stories in this collection that built the foundation for what would be called the "Carcosa Mythos," and we're reading all of them here on Pleasant Evenings Book Club. This episode covers the first two and the following episode will wrap things up. For now, expect to listen to a conversation on the madness that can take over the lives one person, three, or ten-thousand.
