    A is for Amy who fell down the stairs
  

*by R***A on Reviewed in the United States on July 9, 1998*

If you like Edward Gorey then you really owe it to yourself to get a copy of this very fine book.  The authors, Clifford Ross and Karen Wilkin are artist and art critic, respectively.  Ross begins the book with an interview with Edward Gorey himself in which they talk about other painters (Matisse, Albert York, Picasso, Manet and Max Ernst in particular); Surrealism; the creative process (included are a number of sketches and notes for finished drawings); Gorey's theater pieces; fiction; and television.  Wilkin's piece  follows next in which she discusses the "band of crypto-Edwardians" that appear so many of Gorey's books as compared to the illustrations he does for books by other authors, for Mystery Theater and for the stage, opera, theater and ballet.  She has a very interesting perspective on Gorey's work within both historical and cultural contexts.  The second half of the book contains numerous drawings and designs followed by a chronology of Gorey's life (rich with photographs of his home, including one of his cats) and a bibliography.  A very interesting book.  The only thing I would have added is a section on the Gorey cats (the ones that grace the Amphigorey books).

    Wonderful "overview" of the unique artist!
  

*by P***Y on Reviewed in the United States on July 30, 2019*

This book is wonderful. The first part of the book is based on an interview conducted with Edward Gorey in 1994. The remainder of the book is devoted to telling about the life of Edward Gorey, and showing examples of his writing and artwork. This book is a delightful overview of an eccentric and unique artist. I highly recommend this book! Play mark if you find my review helpful. Thank you so much!
