New England is a region steeped in literary lore, and we have the famous authors’ homes to prove it. From the Sarah Orne Jewett House in Maine down to the Mark Twain House in Connecticut, there’s something here for every bibliophile.
That’s especially true when you include the Cape Cod home of Edward Gorey. It’s a place as quirky and fascinating as its former resident, whose career is now being celebrated in a monumental way with this gorgeous slab of a book.
Compiled by the curator of the Edward Gorey House and offering nearly 400 oversize pages filled with Gorey’s darkly humorous artwork and the stories behind it, E Is for Edward is a must-have for any fan, and an outstanding guide for newcomers. —Jenn Johnson, Yankee senior managing editor
A sweeping, gorgeously produced celebration of beloved American writer, artist, and illustrator Edward Gorey on his 100th birthday. Issued by the Edward Gorey Charitable Trust and produced in creative partnership with The Edward Gorey House.
For more than seven decades, Edward Gorey’s work has delighted fans of all ages and inspired artists across multiple disciplines. His collection of self-authored books, which comprises more than 100 volumes including The Gashlycrumb Tinies and The Doubtful Guest, remains a profoundly radical and uncompromised body of work. Viewed either separately or in their entirety, these works represent one of the most unique voices in American arts and letters.
E Is for Edward celebrates Edward Gorey as author, illustrator, humorist, playwright, printmaker, fabric artist, and stage designer, showcasing the vast array of material he created between 1953 and his death in 2000. Curated by Gregory Hischak, Director of The Edward Gorey House, the book is organized by major themes and topics that characterize Gorey’s work including hapless children, mutant menageries, the murder mystery, the ballet, sartorial elegance, stylized decor, and the many recurring motifs and latent symbolism that underlie these subjects. In addition, Hischak offers a look into the pages of the dozens of rarely-viewed notebooks kept by Gorey throughout his lifetime.
Illustrated with hundreds of original pieces of art and archival material, E Is for Edward is a must-have for every fan and the most comprehensive, in-depth exploration of Gorey’s art in more than a decade.
