Very interesting book. Found it in Waterstones and picked up on a whim. If you like interesting books about famous corpses this is the one for you!

People wander through the snow in despair; a strange bird accosts two fur-coated gentlemen; random objects fall from the sky; an orphan child freezes to death by the roadside; vague figures lurk at the peripheries; there is no narrative, nor any explanation other than those the reader willfully imposes or has unwillingly evoked.
Yes, it's Edward Gorey 🪦

bibliothecarivs Sounds about right. I love Gorey but haven't read this one. 2mo
Bookwomble @bibliothecarivs It's a typical Gorey, which I mean as high praise. One of his bleaker offerings, I think. Not many laughs in the frozen corpse of a child. 2mo

#Bookreport

📚Currently reading:

📕Fire & Blood
📕Akechi Kogoro
📙The Witness for the Dead

Progress:
last week was super productive in terms of books I've finished. 4 anthologies and Project Hail Mary was a delight. I moved on to Fire & Blood, but I still need to pick something lighter to listen to between F&B and detective fiction. Hoping next week will be similarly productive.

These are getting harder to find, but I am really enjoying the variety in these complications.

These were all so interesting, would definitely recommend these anthologies, especially for the Halloween season.

I'm surprised I haven't heard much about Edward Gorey before, his work is so morbidly delightful.

Bookwomble He's fantastic 😊 6mo
