Edward Gorey, mystery fan. A blog focusing on the history of mystery/detective fiction.

I recently visited the Edward Gorey House on Cape Cod and learned that Gorey was a devoted #mystery fan. I blogged on some of the mysteries in his library. elizabethfoxwell.blogspot.com/2025/10/Gore... #AgathaChristie #RossMacdonald #JaneLangton #WilkieCollins #PatriciaWentworth #detectivefiction

Wrapped up this vintage find from my local library book sale! Langton's Diamond in the Window is one of my childhood favorites. I was delighted to discover that she wrote adult mysteries as well! The author's illustrations are a bonus treat.
