Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. No Jacket. Special Edition. Advance Reading Copy of Uncorrected Proof in paperback. Very Good copy in b&w generic wraps w/slight cover wear, mitigated poorly by my enclosed photocopy of the published jacket cover image of the man himself. "Edward Gorey's extraordinary and disconcerting books are a…vidly sought after and treasured around the world, but until now little has been known about the man himself. While he was notoriously protective of his privacy, Gorey did grant dozens of interviews over the course of his life. And as the conversations collected in this book suggest, he was unfailingly charming, gracious, and fascinating." [jacket copy] VG paperback ARC is bright & tight, showing slight wear but unread, w/sharp corners & crisp edges, a square binding w/no creases in spine & no jacket as issued. Quite presentable, collectible. "Edward Gorey's work is remarkable and mysterious. I find it fascinating."---Max Ernst. I have much more unlisted Goreyana in my collection; if you are an 'avid seeker' of a 'particular peculiarity' of his, send me an inquiry.

Hardcover. Zustand: As New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: As New. 1st Edition. Stated First Edition, A 1st printing. 292pp. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in AS NEW condition. "A vivid self-portrait in words of a great American artist. [] Edward Gorey's extraordinary and disconcerting books are avidly sought and treasured th…roughout the world, but until now little has been known about the man himself. While he was notoriously protective of his privacy, Gorey did grant dozens of interviews over the course of his life. And as the conversations collected in this book demonstrate, he proved to be unfailingly charming, gracious, and fascinating. [] Here is Gorey in his own words, ruminating on everything from the ballets of George Balanchine to cats, from classical Japanese literature to television sit-coms, from obscure silent films to yard sales. We meet the artist in his ramshackle book-lined studio in Manhattan and his equally bizarre house on Cape Cod and listen as he describes his eclectic obsessions and tastes. Together, this collection of more than a quarter century of interviews constitutes a loosely sketched self-portrait, a freewheeling autobiography in Gorey's own fashion." [jacket copy] "According to many statements in this sterling collection of interviews, the late creator of nonpareil illustrated books thought of himself primarily as a writer. The stories came to him more easily than his densely crosshatched drawings, each of which normally took a week's labor. His literariness shouldn't surprise us, considering that he majored in French at Harvard and most of his friends were writers; he roomed with poet Frank O'Hara for two years; and novelist Alison Lurie was long a familiar. Reclusive by nature, Gorey yet attended every New York City Ballet performance for 25 years, becoming a fixture to the company, thanks to the fur coats, sneakers, and jeans he habitually wore, and late in life devoted much time to community productions of his plays. It seems as though he read everything, and his pronouncements on writers constitute one of this book's most acute pleasures. He was also a movie buff who preferred silent films, averring that they, more than any other artwork, influenced his style and choice of subjects. As delightful as a Gorey storybook."--Ray Olson, Booklist. Pristine hardcover w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding, wrapped in an intact, bright-as-new jacket. "Edward Gorey's work is remarkable and mysterious. I find it fascinating."--Max Ernst. Quite presentable, collectible.
