Neat article on Edward Gorey!

I would only take issue with the statements implying that Gorey was virtually unknown by all but a small cult until recently. Maybe it's just the environment I hang out in/with, but I've a fan for at least 40 years. His production on Dracula was well publicised and appreciated at that time, (30+ years ago). If he is more popular now, that's great. But he was hardly ignored in his lifetime.
