Amphigorey Again

Harcourt, 2006. Linnen band met stofomslag. Pp: 260. This collection displays in glorious abundance the offbeat characters and droll humor of Edward Gorey. Figbash is acrobatic, topiaries are tragic, hippopotami are admonitory, and galoshes are remorseful in this celebration of a unique talent that never fails to delight, amuse, and confound. Amphigorey Again contains previously uncollected work and two unpublished stories-"The Izzard Book," a quirky riff on the letter Z , and "La Malle Saignante," a bilingual homage to early French silent serial movies. Rough sketches and unfinished panels show an ironic and singular mind at work. ISBN: 9780151011070. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.

FIRBANK, Ronald (1886-1926); GOREY, Edward [Illustrates]

Two Early Stories [the Wavering Disciple; a Study in Opal]

New York, Albondocani Press, 1971. Limited Edition. Wrappers. No. 147 of 200 hand-numbered copies for sale (26 lettered copies were also issued), with illustrations by Edward Gorey and foreword by Miriam J. Benkovitz. Crown 8vo (190 x 135mm): 54,[2]pp, with four illustrations. Original limp brown, grey, and gold French marble wrappers over card covers, paper title label printed in brown to front panel, text printed on olive-green laid paper, fore-edge untrimmed. Fine. Benkovitz A26. Toledano B52b. Both stories originally appeared in Granta, a Cambridge University publication, in 1906 and 1907, respectively, years Firbank spent at Trinity Hall, during which he converted to Roman Catholicism (lesbian nuns became a literary specialty). Gorey was extremely fond of Firbank and counted him among his important literary influences (a sentiment Firbank expressed often about Oscar Wilde, whose son, Vyvyan Holland, had decided against publishing "The wavering Disciple" in The Crescent, another Cambridge publication, because Holland thought the story unsuited to the tastes of the university's "hearty, rowing, drinking, swearing" undergraduates). N. B. With few exceptions (always identified), we only stock books in exceptional condition, carefully preserved in archival, removable mylar sleeves. All orders are packaged with care and posted promptly. Satisfaction guaranteed.
