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 🪦

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 were really interesting. This one included some sketches as well.
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.
My fav coffee table book of the spooky season…actually I think every single post for this book on Litsy is just me raving about it for various #scarathalonphotochallenges skeleton prompts 😅 #batbrigade
