Mer om författaren

A truly prodigious and original artist, Edward St. John Gorey (1925-2000) gave to the world more than one hundred books, including The Gashlycrumb Tinies, The Doubtful Guest and The Wuggly Ump; prizewinning set and costume designs for innumerable theatre productions; and a remarkable number of illustrations in publications such as the New Yorker and the New York Times. Gorey's masterful pen and ink illustrations and his ironic, offbeat humour have brought him critical acclaim and an avid following throughout the world.

Recensioner i media

Gorey was the master of the macabre and The Gashlycrumb Tinies was his masterpiece: a doomladen abecedary of infant disaster and sudden awful endings. For years I had it on my wall as a poster. Now I will have a beautiful object to love.
