Amphigorey Also by Edward Gorey, 244 pages
The weirdness continues in book three! I think my favorite things in these books are his alphabet stories. Most of them are pretty funny, and its what started this decent into the world of Edward Gorey. In this volume he tells a story in 26 words starting from A to Z. Not only does that take some talent and planning but he also made it funny and interesting. Of course there are still the stories that leave you with the feeling of confusion over what you read but I think those are a standard with him.
