Aprašymas

Filmmaker Christopher Seufert spent four years with the late writer, illustrator, and artist Edward Gorey before Gorey's death in 2000. Seufert is the producer of the only documentary to be shot with and agreed to by Edward Gorey during his life (EdwardGoreyFilm.com).

This book offers a new window on the often-mysterious Gorey and captures many facets of his personality in personal and revealing conversations, with Gorey (draped with cats) sprawling on a chair in his kitchen, over a beer at a nearby tavern, or at his daily lunch café.

Features:

• 17 previously unpublished interviews 5 with Gorey himself, including the last expressions of Gorey's singular mind, and 12 with a wide variety of artists who worked with and were inspired by him, including Neil Gaiman, Danny Elfman, Daniel Handler, and Julie Harris.

• Over 150 unretouched photos, previously unpublished, documenting Gorey's daily life and his home as he lived in it.

Going beyond the many books about his work, these images and conversations capture new insights about Gorey himself: the mind behind the renowned American icon of theater, illustration, writing, and bemusingly cryptic observations.
