Description
Edward Gorey's consummate wit and masterful drawing have brought him worldwide acclaim. Set in a vaguely Edwardian time frame with a decidedly English overtone, Gorey's work shows the influence of his love for British literature. Ill-fated children with baleful faces; anthropomorphic creatures of untraceable biological lineage; shadowy, haunted adults, forever on the verge of mysterious errands: these are but a few of the irresistible characters who habituate Gorey's world. - INDIVIDUAL ITEM RRP £13.99
