Ghostly Stories by Celia Fremlin Review.

Nicholas Gurewitch’s Notes on a Case of Melancholia, or: A Little Death is a very darkly amusing tale which you can read in no time at all, both of which fit with Gorey’s style, and may not leave much of an impression story-wise but the art. The whole book looks like this:Īnd it’s a good thing the art’s so good because that’s pretty much all there is - this is a mostly silent comic so there’s not much to read! The designs of Death’s family members were cool, Little Death was very cute and the use of the colour purple was masterful.

Scratchy, spindly, spidery-black art fill the pages - the gothic look of this one is perfect. I loved the art so damn much - it’s a gorgeous-looking book, perfect for the season. I’ve never understood the appeal of Edward Gorey and can’t say I’ve enjoyed any of his books but I quite liked Gurewitch’s pastiche of his style here. Like he did in his previous book The Perry Bible Fellowship, Nicholas Gurewitch adopts the artistic and storytelling style of a recognisable comics talent - in this instance Edward Gorey - for his latest comic, Notes on a Case of Melancholia, or: A Little Death.

A father seeks out a psychiatrist to unburden himself of his fears for his child - do they have what it takes to follow in his, and his family’s, footsteps? Also the father is DEATH!
