Description
Here’s to the centennial of Edward Gorey’s birth! Frivolity at the edge of a moral swamp,
anyone? With this special edition calendar’s images unearthed from the Gorey archive,
you’ll bask in a year’s worth of crosshatched inscrutability from the master himself,
as well as enjoy a collectible print of the drop curtain he designed for Amphigorey:
The Musical. And unlike Neville, of The Gashlycrumb Tinies fame (shown in March),
you will most certainly not die of ennui as part of an abecedarium, no matter how
celebrated that primer might be. A Renaissance man of boundless imagination, Gorey created more than 100 works,
designed sets and costumes for theatrical productions, and had a profound affection for
ballet, literature, film, and animals. Gorey brought to life enigmatic, humorous tales from
the laboratory of his mind, leaving his unique stamp on American art and culture.
