Critic Reviews

Gorey was the master of the macabre and The Gashlycrumb Tinies was his masterpiece: a doomladen abecedary of infant disaster and sudden awful endings. For years I had it on my wall as a poster. Now I will have a beautiful object to love. -- Neil Gaiman
EDWARD GOREY. American. A singularity. Prose & images, redolent of Victorian dread and beauty. Influenced Tim Burton. -- Guillermo Del Toro
