Amphigorey: Fifteen Books #[nn]

Edward Gorey's *Amphigorey* collects fifteen of his singular works between one cover, and the jacket art makes an immediate, delightful case for the whole enterprise. Arranged in a grid of vignette panels, oversized letters spell out the title while Gorey's cast of furred and scarved creatures — cats clutching letters, a rotund figure seen from behind, small animals draped over O's and perched on R's and Y's — interact with the alphabet in ways that feel both absurd and oddly cozy. It's a 1972 omnibus that announces, with quiet wit, exactly the eccentric world waiting inside.
