The Black Doll, a little-known and never-produced screenplay by the very well-known and often-published artist and writer Edward Gorey (1925–2000), dishes up a rambunctious romp of a plot, featuring vile villains, wicked women, sinister socialites, and a horrified heroine. It’s the stuff of many a silent melodrama, but imbued with classic Gorey convolutions. Written before 1973 and originally published with illustrations in Scenario magazine in 1998, The Black Doll has been missing from most Gorey libraries until now.
Foreword by Andreas Brown, with interview by Annie Nocenti.
Hardcover smyth-sewn casebound book, with dust jacket. 72 pages with illustrations by Edward Gorey.
