Magic, Monsters and the Search for the Real Necronomicon

Literary Orientalism or reality? According to the cosmic horror novelist HP Lovecraft, during the 8th century, the notorious Yemeni poet Abdul Alhazred wrote one of the most powerful books on wizardry ever to have existed known as Al Azeeth or The Necronomicon. This book could summon djinn and even open gateways to other dimensional plains. Could the Necronomicon be real or is it just a fantasy, as over the last 1000 years five books (including Lovecraft’s version) could have existed, and might still exist today.
