  • Large Bio of a Boring Personality

    Edward Gorey, for all his creative talents, is a boring human being. He is reclusive, claims to be asexual, and doesn't do much except work. And, no question, the work can be compelling. But, like Gorey himself, much of the work makes no sense. The author, to show how smart he is, keeps alluding to other artists to explain Gorey. That trick gets tedious after a while. I bought the book because I used to live on Cape Cod, where Gorey ended his life, and I've been to his house/museum in Yarmouthport. But, overall, the book, while well written, could have been smaller to fit Gorey's limited personality.

  • Perfectly describes the artist/author Edward Gorey

    I admired Edward Gorey as an artist most notable for his line drawings on PBS Mystery! The book describes his journey as an artist ,author ,and individual. What is most compelling is how he got there from here. Edward Gorey"s story is engrossing and he is a most interesting subject. He is a most gifted, talented, and brilliant subject.

  • Good, I think perhaps

    Haven't had a chance to read it yet, but eBay wants this review, so here it is. Anything about Edward Gorey has got to be good.

  • Who was he ….. really?

    It provides an in depth view of the life/style of a well loved, idiosyncratic character.
