Death arrives in this darkly humorous and brilliantly illustrated tale created by Nicholas Gurewitch, author of
The Perry Bible Fellowship Almanack
!
Death becomes a patient of a recently-bereaved psychoanalyst. The topic of discussion? His frolicsome child, who has no apparent interest in grim-reaping! Featuring an unfathomable number of lines which have been hand-chiseled into inked clay, this labor of love by Nicholas Gurewitch invokes the morbid humor of his comic strip (
The Perry Bible Fellowship
) and the spooky silent-film qualities of the late Edward Gorey.
