Book Description Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. Edward Gorey (illustrator). 1st Edition. In 1961, using his anagram pen name, Gorey published The Curious Sofa: A Pornographic Work by Ogdred Weary -- a delightfully dark quasi-pornographic (that is, without actual nudity) quasi-horror (without actual blood and gore) "illustrated story about furniture." Though none of the drawings are overtly sexual, plenty of innuendo and strategically placed tree branches, urns, room dividers, and other props ensure your imagination stays on the frisky side. This is the first printing of the re-issue edition, review copy with publishers announcement laid in. Boards, edges are rubbed. As new otherwise. book. Seller Inventory # 274592
