book description

"A is for Amy who fell down the stairs. B is for Basil assaulted by bears. C is for Clara who wasted away. D is for Desmond thrown out of a sleigh..." The rhyming couplets of this grim abecedarian are familiar, of course, to devotees of macabre humor, but the darkly crosshatched drawings are (as Poe put it) "the soul of the plot." Several years went by during which The Gashlycrumb Tinies: Or, After the Outing was not available in a small hardcover edition like this one, which is the true format for Edward Gorey's specialty, the adult picture book.

Ah, learning the ABCs. I can assure you that you never saw this book when you were a young child. Or hell, maybe you did and that's one of the reasons you're at this website. But regardless, the illustrated morbidity that begins "A is for Amy who fell down the stairs. B is for Basil assaulted by bears." is fun for the whole family.
