5.0

The happiness this book has brought me is unmatched. Edward Gorey writes as if he was spilling tea (pun intended). Breezily, effortlessly, like it's almost a mistake he has just produced the most core shaking gut spilling soul unsettling masterpiece. His art, his mind, both flawless. 

Fav stories: The Bug Book, The Happles Child, The Gashlycrumb Tinies, The Insect God, The Wuggly Ump.

Some of the pieces in this collection have not held up as well over the years, and I found myself getting really peeved with a select few of them. Others, like the well-known Gashlycrumb Tinies, we're just as amusing as I remember.
