Amphigorey Again Hardcover - 2006

by Edward Gorey


Summary

This latest collection displays in glorious abundance the offbeat characters and droll humor of Edward Gorey. Figbash is acrobatic, topiaries are tragic, hippopotami are admonitory, and galoshes are remorseful in this celebra- tion of a unique talent that never fails to delight, amuse, and confound.
 
Amphigorey Again contains previously uncollected work and two unpublished stories—"The Izzard Book," a quirky riff on the letter Z , and "La Malle Saignante," a bilingual homage to early French silent serial movies. Rough sketches and unfin- ished panels show an ironic and singular mind at work.

Media reviews

"Although it's his drawings that hold us--the theatrical poses, the bespoke furniture in penumbral mansions, the malicious topiary--Gorey was also a unique literary stylist...[He] collaborated with phantoms drawn from his own private alphabet."
