A peek inside Edward Gorey’s modern Gothic world (washingtonpost.com)

In one of his drawings, Edward Gorey once inserted the quip, "Edward Gorey. The man who digs engraves of the past." (Was it written on a tombstone? It was decades ago.)

Paywalled.

> He began drawing before age 2

What does this mean? The 2-year-olds I know don’t have the dexterity yet to draw zigzags or circles. Presumably his drawing consisted of colorful blobs?
