Reply:Edward St. John Gorey (February 22, 1925鈥揂pril 15, 2000) was a writer and artist noted for his wry, macabre illustrated books.
His first independent work, The Unstrung Harp, was published in 1953. He also published under pen names that were anagrams of his first and last names, such as "Ogdred Weary".
Gorey was very fond of word games, particularly anagrams. He wrote many of his books under pseudonyms that were usually anagrams of his own name (most famously "Ogdred Weary"). Some of these are listed below, with the corresponding book title(s). "Eduard Blutig" is also a word game: "Blutig" is German (the language from which these two books were purportedly translated) for "bloody", which is a synonym for "gory".
Ogdred Weary - The Curious Sofa, The Beastly Baby
Dogear Wryde - The Broken Spoke/Cycling Cards
