all i have is the gashylycrumb tinies which i carry around in my purse in case i get very bored and want to look through. everytime i'm at the bookstore, i stare longingly at the big book with all these gorey drawings. it might be the one you have, i don't know. it's always right by the calvin and hobbes anthologies.
yeah chances are its the one i have... but theres 3 the third just got published in 2004 its called Amphigorey also... its the nicest one i think its got most of his later works... and is in a nice almost nylonish cover...very nice especially since it holds up well in backpacks... my copy of amphigorey is already looking pretty shabby and ive only had it about a month or so.. but i carry it around everywhere like you do to keep something quick and uplifting around for a read when im bored. if youre a fan of the gore man you should check out the rest of his stuff specially his pop up books... those are really cool... and if youre just a fan of his art work you should read his version of bram stokers Dracula its awsome drawings which anyone can appreciate.. by the way... if you dont mind my asking ..again....who is this? im really interested being that no one i know reads let alone knows of the gorey man...
Amphigory,or amphigouri, meaning a nonsense verse or composition. - E.G.
i leave you my Aim ScreenName and email... incase you want to maintain your anonymity, but care to partake in conversations(something im always in search of) outside the realm of livejournal posts.
by the way... The Gashlycrumb Tinies is part of The Vinegar Works Three Volumes of Moral Instruction and i thinks its the best of the three really...although The west wing is just a collection of illustrations and damn good ones at that.
thats a good one... lucky charlotte. i havnt had the pleasure of owning it because its in amphigorey too... and they didnt have they didnt have the hardcover copy of it(the epileptic bicycle) at Barns and Noble when i bought amphigorey... manny has it though well amphigorey too anyway ... thats gonna be the next little critter to make its way into my bookshelf.. i really want it because its got this ABCs of demented things that gorey wrote... i cant remember the name but it was great...he thought up imaginary animals for each letter and illustrated them the way only gorey could.
everytime you comment you remind me how much i want a shotgun.
i just mean that your way of popping up and out of my life really makes me wish i were capable of destruction...on a grander scale. i think that would comfort me being that destruction is what provides me with a sense of security and control and your bobbing weaving in a and out of my life fills me with a sense of vulnerability.
