Another fantastic post. I had never heard of Mr. Hodgson or his writing. I will have to look him up.
Thank you, Thomas, for your very motivating response! Yes, he is not so well known. He wrote poetry too, but it wasn't published in his lifetime (except when inserted in a novel).
Genius smothered unheard,
Ere the soul-tale is expressed,
Is the greatest terror the world hath known,
A double terror unguessed,
For with such dies the unuttered Word –
The genius dies not alone.
