With sunset pools of flaming foam
Like opened crucibles of Hell
Glows redly, as a burning Rome
Beneath its red malevolanace
Where swooning orbs recline
Are etched grotesque and curious trees
With shapes of strange outline.
WEIRD WHISPERINGS
by Julius Schwartz
Arthur B. Reeve, creator of the famous scientific-sleuth, Craig Kennedy, makes his bow to Weird Tales readers with a novelette in the May issue!... Jack Binder, brother of the popular author Eando Binder, will do most of the illustrating for Weird commencing with the April number.... C. L. Moore has pulled a "Clark Ashton Smith" and has drawn the illustration for her forthcoming yarn in WT "Julhui".... There will be no women on Weird Tales' covers for two consecutive issues this year, April and May!
