About This Item
Warwick, UK: Pomegranate, 1991. Reissue. Hardcover. Fine/fine. Fine in fine dust jacket. Reissue of 1963 publication. Hardcover. Unpaginated. 6 1/2" x 5 1/2". This mordant masterpiece charts the fate of three wholesome children whose happy days weaving chains of flowers are cut short when the mysterious Wuggly Ump hurtles from its den in search of tasty tots. The mildly unsettling cautionary tale is set to deceptively pleasant rhymes and illustrated in Gorey's inimitable style.
