Edward Gorey 2024

Anyone for a sly peek into “The Other Book”? A sidelong glance at “A Fearful Holiday” or “A Week-End at Sepulchre”? Edward Gorey fans might have clamored for these and others of the unpublished titles included in this calendar gallery of cover art. Unearthed from the Gorey archive, 11 of these works didn’t reach fruition but are nonetheless suggestive of the “what ifs” and “what the whats” that brought this artist and author international acclaim. And in answer to your question, The Fatal Lozenge is the one published book of this batch by Gorey. Here’s to a year full of delightfully odd humor (and maybe a wayward cat?) from the master of crosshatched inscrutability.
