Reviews
Edward Gorey (1925-2000) was an established, prolific author and artist. He wrote and illustrated some 100 books, and he illustrated several 100 more. Gorey considered himself an author first, then an artist. This book explores his inspirations and the meanings behind his work. Whyte, an established literary writer and a fan of Gorey, set three goals in crafting this book: to convey the fun and excitement in searching for Gorey's influences, to contribute fresh insights abut Gorey's works, and to give those new to Gorey the infinite pleasure of getting to know him. Whyte gathered all the evidence--from public and private resources, including his own substantial collection of Gorey's books, drawings paintings and books--in his quest to reveal the hidden meanings and inspiration behind Gorey's work. Meticulously researched and rich in detail, Gorey Secrets explores everything, from Hogarth and Redon to Matisse and children's illustrations, from Melville to Lear to Agatha Christie, the Brothers Grimm, and many more., Here is a delightful kind of skeleton key to the faux-macabre world of Edward Gorey. The ferociously well-read Gorey is a most elusive quarry for annotators. Hats off to Malcolm Whyte for having tracked down and traced such a broad sampling of this beguiling omnivore's affinities and inspirations., Whyte's book urges Gorey's admirers to engage in new readings of familiar titles while equipped with fresh insights, reminding us that much of Gorey's power resides in that most "mildly unsettling" aspect of his work: the sense that there is always more to uncover in his books,, Malcolm Whyte has done us all a service by exploring and explaining the incredibly complex tangle of Edward Gorey's sources, influences and inspirations. Everything is in the mix, from Melville and Lear to Agatha Christie and the Brothers Grimm, from Hogarth and Redon to Matisse and children's illustrations, as well as the I Ching . Richly illustrated and beautifully designed, this lively monograph is a deeply rewarding celebration of Gorey's creative genius., Like the fictional detective Hercule Poirot, Malcolm Whyte has sifted through all the evidence and gathered us in the library to reveal the hidden meanings and inspirations behind the works of Edward Gorey. Gorey Secrets is meticulously researched and cunningly presented. Newcomers and seasoned Goreyphiles alike will be delightfully enlightened by each revelation., Malcolm Whyte's book Gorey Secrets is a very welcome addition into the understanding of Gorey's published works. A must-read for Gorey fans.
