Abstract:
A sequel of Gorey's illustrated classic of offbeat, somewhat macabre humorous non-sequiters, Amphigorey.
This follow-up to the darkly humorous Amphigorey is wittier, more macabre, and more wondrous than ever. Master illustrator and iconic gothic storyteller Edward Gorey gives his fans 20 more nonsensically and mind-bending tales that draw fans and unsuspecting newcomers into a world only he can create. Gorey's pen-and-ink drawings spur the imagination and satisfy fans of art and the good storytelling. -- Publisher's website.
