Failmingo Report post Posted September 22 Workman Publishing reached out to us with a 20% discount for their new book E Is For Edward, a centennial celebration of Gorey's work. Anyone who purchases any of the Gorey oils from us will receive this link, between now and September 30th! You may message me here or DM the Lab's accounts on social media with your order number, and I'll give you the link. (You are also welcome to email Ted and ask for it, since many of you are already in conversations with him about orders. I'm just trying to lighten his load!) "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."
