Query: Disappointing

This book was terribly disappointing. It seems intended more to establish the author as an intimate of Gorey's than to enlighten us about Gorey or his work -- it's particularly weak on Gorey's artistry, inspirations, or craftsmanship. Instead, it reads like a over-long gossip magazine profile written by someone with a literary vocabulary. The frequent anti-Semitic asides (the author's, not Gorey's) led me to give up half way through and deposit the book in the nearest garbage can.
