The Glorious Nosebleed Summary

The Glorious Nosebleed by Edward Gorey

The Glorious Nosebleed trips through the alphabet with illustrations that are both strikingly funny, and a bit weird, all the way from She wandered among the trees Aimlessly to He wrote it all down Zealously. A classic of Gorey's imaginative and darkly humorous mind.
