I keep coming back to it because it is a nice piece of short horror. It’s like craaaaaaaaaazy racist though.

Am I going insane or was the writing in this one kind of bad? I saw several reviews lauding the "monologue" of Zadok Marsh near the end as he told the story of Innsmouth. It was kind of lost on me because that was the THIRD TIME in this novella that Lovecraft decided to present the protagonist and the reader with a 3-5 page wall of text full of exposition. To me, it was clunky and could have had more nuance.
Sorry to be a hater BUT I did really enjoy the ending!! And that one action scene.
