I'm looking for more books that have a sort of ethereal, other worldly sort of avant garde weirdness about them, without completely falling apart and becoming incomprehensible. I am a big fan of psychological sort of horror mystery suspenseful type stuff. I don't want short stories, I want something I can really sink my teeth into. I'm not sure what this book would look like yet, but I am eager to read something else. Thanks. Also, if someone would tell me a good place to start with h.p. lovecraft I would appreciate it, he has way to many published books.

This guy does everything you asked for.
Try "The Chymist", and "Dream Of A Manikin".

Oh, I missed the part about not liking short stories.
I suppose you could read a collection of his stories seeing as they all focus on the same theme and setting.
