4.0 out of 5 stars Candy from a Stranger, April 18, 2000
This review is from: the insect god (Hardcover)
And there is no one stranger than Edward Gorey. The Insect God is dark dark dark, sick sick sick, and really fabuluous. Poor little Millicent Frastly dissappears into the oncoming dark without a trace. Oh pity the poor child with a weakness for cinnamon balls. Even the most ardent child-hater, which popular myth held Gorey to be, can not help but give a little shudder at the gristly fate of disgustingly sweet and beribboned Millicent. Wonderfully illustrated in Gorey's ominous stlye, the Insect God is a shadowy romp through the mind of one of Earth's strangest humorists. If you find you love the book, you might want to check out the song of the same text and title covered in an apropriately creepy manner by the Monks of Doom.
