Nonsense! The Curious Story of Edward Gorey by Lori Mortensen

4.0

Lovely. It reminds me of [b:The Important Thing About Margaret Wise Brown|41453977|The Important Thing About Margaret Wise Brown|Mac Barnett|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1540796683l/41453977._SX50_.jpg|64713222] in both the structure and tone. The illustrations are nicely evocative of Gorey without being rip-offs and maintaining their own distinct energy. My favorite page was the spread of his anagrammatic pseudonyms and different silly version of what he, as that author, might look like.
