Since a copy of the King in Yellow plays a roll in Signalis I've started reading it. The Repairer of Reputations is a pretty freaky story and I like how the high concepts of the play with space kings and strange sigils contrast with the banal life of the main character. The yellow sigil stuff reminded me of the anti life equation from the Fourth World. Oh and the 1920s future shown here is a chud's paradise with all blacks in a black ethnostate, no jews, no immigrants, and suicide booths.

If you're too lazy to read prose, and who isnt, I N J Culbard has a great comic book adaptation of The King in Yellow, which includes Repairer.
He also does the best comic adaptations of H P Lovecraft, another writer with a pretty eccentric writing style.
