Book Reviews of The Gashlycrumb Tinies
Book Review: "Awl" for the love of Gorey
Summary: 5 Stars
I stumbled across this beautiful little book almost a year ago and I still can't put it down. Edward Gorey has a brilliantly gothic imagination and his poetry is filled with the bleak and shadowed imagery we all have come to expect. "The Gashlycrumb Tinies" is an expertly crafted book of the alphabetical deaths of 26 small children. Each child, as innocent as the next, is knocked off in the most humorous ways. "O is for Olive run through with an Awl" depicts a young pony-tailed girl throwing a sharpened awl in the air; Olive is one of my personal favourites. I would strongly recommend this book to anyone. If you enjoy laughing about the darker things in life this book is definitely for you.
