Edward Gorey: His Book Cover Art & Design Medieval and so much more areThe master creator of finely crosshatched illustrations and sinisterly amusing tales, Edward Gorey got his start in publishing by designing book covers for such New York houses as Doubleday, Grosset & Dunlap, Vintage Books, and later Random House. Today, his prodigious output of hundreds of dust jackets and paperback covers evidences his distinctive flair for design and his extraordinary ability to portray the essence of the books that came his way.
