Gorey is a brilliant and disturbing artist who is absolutely unique.
This collection includes 'The Utter Zoo' -The Ampoo is intensely neat;
Its head is small,likewise its feet.
and -The Posby goes into a trance
In which it does a little dance.
Also included are 'The Loathsome Couple' who are indeed truly loathsome and 'The Stupid Joke' in which the joker in question gets a lot more than he bargained for.
If you haven't come across this artist/writer before then do give him a try.You won't be disappointed. ( )

Any amphogorey is an excellent introduction to Gorey, but this one I can highly recommend, as I own it.

This book contains some of the best black and white art and delightfully wicked and witty tales. A great coffee table book, and the printing is good enough that you could cut out the images and hang them on the wall. ( )
