2010 Edward Gorey Wall Calendar
$13.99
"It came seventeen years ago--and to this day / It has shown no intention of going away." Edward Gorey often expressed himself through parables, simple stories of profound significance. The most moving of these may be The Doubtful Guest, first published in 1957 and later performed onstage--the tale of a maddeningly endearing creature in striped scarf and canvas shoes who inexplicably moves in with a staid Victorian family. The book's fourteen couplets and illustrations, reproduced here, convey with droll humor the classic tale of the houseguest who overstays his welcome.
