It's time to revise my bibliography of Edward Gorey books, so leave us leap!

And Gate dig this: Amphigorey Again, the fourth book in the Amphigorey series, will hit the shelves in October. Amphigorey Again will collect the rest of Gorey's work from the 1980s through 1990s as well as other odds and ends. Coolness!

I found this rather amusing. From the colophon of The Curious Sofa:

"This book has been privately printed for subscribers only in an edition limited to 212 copies of which this is no. 83.
"A perfectly plain brown paper wrapper for purposes of public concealment may easily be made at home."

The joke here Gate is that all copies of the 1961 Obolensky edition had this in the colophon!
