Staggered as we are by the grim irony of the Boston Marathon bombing on the 13th anniversary of Edward Gorey’s death, still we celebrate the lives that will keep that day in our memories for years to come.
And in the spirit of Spring, we look forward to tomorrow’s opening of the Edward Gorey House for this season with a more cheerful anniversary: the 5oth of The Vinegar Works, that memorable trilogy comprising “The Gashlycrumb Tinies,” “The West Wing,” and “The Insect God.” Check it out at 8 Strawberry Lane, Yarmouth Port, Massachusetts, or at http://www.edwardgoreyhouse.org/
