Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Hardcover. A fascinating and deeply personal view of Edward Gorey's home, where he lived happily and industriously for so many years. In the days after Gorey's shocking and sudden death in April, 2000, McDermott received permission to photograph, the rooms, and the possessions that would live on. In persuading the estate's executors, McDermott emphasized that the unique nature of Gorey's home and his life would soon be gone and that it needed to be preserved in some way. The executors agreed, and a week after Gorey died McDermott was photographing the house. Elephant House may be the most intimate portrait of Edward Gorey ever published. McDermott's reminiscences and descriptions of the house accompany his engaging photographs, and more than a dozen of Gorey's etchings and drawings of elephants - never before published -are paired with quotes from the artist. Through this portrait, Edward Gorey becomes even more the man we all wish we had had the chance to meet, an artist whose brilliant and hilarious art and words will continue to charm and delight us for generations to come. They appear in both color and black and white and they convey the range of Gorey's interests and his possessions in their unforgetable and meaningful way. The Edward Gorey House, also known as the Elephant House, is the home on Cape Cod in which Gorey-author, illustrator, puppeteer, and playwright-lived and worked from 1986 until his death in 2000.aThe house currently serves as a museum celebrating Gorey's life and work and is open annually from April to December. Gorey had a respect and passion for animals, cats in particular. The activities of the house, from art education to interactive exhibits, reflect Gorey's support of animal welfare. Bound in simple gray cloth with embossed titling to the spine. Whimsical endpapers with copies of Gorey drawings in black and white. The photographs are organized by room, and they usually provide an overview of that space accompanied by closeups of objects contained there. A wonderful montage thqt captures Gorey's life and possessions that, as McDermott said, needed to be captured before they disappeard forever. With a large black and white photo on the dust jacket's the front cover of the exterior of the house and the illustrated image of an elephant on the rear cover.This is a fine pictorial achivement in a book in fine condition. Lacking called for clamshell box.Unpaginated. Measures 8.25 x 11.5 inches. PHOTO/102326.…
