Book cover for Born to Be Posthumous: The Eccentric Life and Mysterious Genius of Edward Gorey
Gorey, who straddled Taoism and Dadaism, irony and existentialist angst, made a career of defying dualisms, in the course of which he produced works that managed to be both marvelous and pointless, serious and frivolous.

“A dreamer is one who can only find his way by moonlight, and his punishment is that he sees the dawn before the rest of the world”
Erin Morgenstern, The Night Circus

Edward Gorey
“My favorite journey is looking out the window.”
Edward Gorey

Vicki Myron
“A library after closing is a lonely place. It is heart-poundingly silent, and the rows of shelves create an almost unfathomable number of dark and creepy corners.”
Vicki Myron

Oscar Wilde
“Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.”
Oscar Wilde

Vicki Myron
“A great library doesn't have to be big or beautiful. It doesn't have to have the best facilities or the most efficient staff or the most users. A great library provides. It is enmeshed in the life of a community in a way that makes it indispensable. A great library is one nobody notices because it is always there, and always has what people need.”
Vicki Myron, Dewey: The Small-Town Library Cat Who Touched the World
