Amphigorey Also

If you’re a Gordy fan, don’t skip this. There are several in this collection and I suggest every single one!

Nice reproduction! Love the book.

This arrived in pristine condition and I’m proud to have this to add to the Gorey section of my shelf.

If you like Edward Gorey this volume is essential. The chronological order of these stories is also a plus for what originally appeared in small format individual books that were hard to find at the time of publication and almost impossible today. This book is amazingly affordable and the four volumes of Amphigorey with its collected works show a real insight into Gorey's growth as a writer and artist. These compilations should never go out of print.

I love Edward Gorey's creepy and surreal narratives. I love his hand drawn illustrations. The only thing I didn't like is the edition's reduction in size.

What a wonderful compilation of the works of this unusual and extremely gifted artist! While Charles Addams is a household name, that of Edward Gorey still brings looks of puzzlement whenever it comes up in conversation. I personally feel he has never received the acclaim justly due him, but then again, his works certainly will not be to everyone's taste. At times his stories are beyond comprehension, but perhaps that was his intention--to leave us guessing or use our own imagination to fill in the gaps. Be that as it may, the illustrations are worth the price of the book alone. If you love Edward Gorey and would rather have some of his works together in one volume, do yourself a favor and purchase this book. But be prepared to enter his personal weird and at times incomprehensible world.

Great book in great condition. I LOVE IT!!!! It features 17 stories including: THE UTTER ZOO, THE BLUE ASPIC, THE EPIPLECTIC BICYCLE, THE SOPPING THURSDAY, THE GRAND PASSION, LES PASSEMENTERIES HORRIBLES:, THE ECLECTIC ABECEDARIUM, L'HEURE BLEUE, THE BROKEN SPOKE, THE AWDREY GORE LEGACY, THE GLORIOUS NOSEBLEEED, THE LOATHSOME COUPLE, THE GREEN BEADS, LES URNES UTILES, THE STUPID JOKE, THE PRUNE PEOPLE, and THE TUNING FORK! Awesome compilation!!

Edward is marvelously strange, and an amazing illustrator with fine line drawing leaving no space unfilled.

Full of weird alphabets. Gorey enjoyed himself making these. I enjoyed the zoo alphabet best.'The Boggerslosh conceals itselfIn back of bottles on a shelf'.

Bought for dyslexic son , he 10 some of it too old but get artwork and think we all look at it from time to time , good to get imagination going

Love Gorey

Devido ao número de livros que o artista Edward Gorey tem (mais de 100 livros publicados) este compilado de histórias é uma grande oportunidade de adquirir mais de sua obra, num único volume.Este "Amphigorey Also" é o terceiro volume de histórias compiladas do artista, ao todo são quatro livros maravilhosos, um verdadeiro presente, para nós, fãs. Estou enviando amostras de fotos, inclusive do índice para o conhecimento de quais histórias contém neste volume.Os quatro livros são, na sequência (com a data da primeira edição que foram publicadas):Amphigorey Fifteen Books, 1972Amphigorey Too, 1975Amphigorey Also, 1983Amphigorey Again, 2006

I have loved Edward Gorey since I was very young, and I'm so happy to see that his books are still being published. I have many of his small books, and four of his Amphigorey large books. This latest edition to my collection is as wonderful as all the others. Each small work of art is a masterpiece, and the witty prose seldom fails to bring a dark chuckle. He may be gone now from this world, but he lives in our imaginations ... long live Edward Gorey!
