Description:... Taken from his book The Glorious Nosebleed: The Fifth Alphabet, here are Gorey's darkly hilarious interpretations of adverbs from A to Z. For the letter O, Gorey limned a leery family in the parlor, with their fat cat smiling in the armchair: The doorbell rang Ominously. In He spoke to the child Repressively, a dour gentleman lectures a woebegone girl huddled on an ottoman. This is a deliciously dark jaunt through the world of Edward Gorey.
