The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy (20th Anniversary Edition)

The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy 

To celebrate its twentieth anniversary, a beautiful new edition of the classic collection of spooky tales and illustrations, from the world’s best-loved Gothic movie director, Tim Burton.

Twenty-three illustrated gothic tales from the dark corridors of the imagination of Tim Burton. Burton - the creative genius behind Batman, Edward Scissorhands, Sleepy Hollow and Nightmare Before

Christmas, among others - now gives birth to a cast of gruesomely sympathetic children: misunderstood outcasts who struggle to find love and belonging in their cruel, cruel worlds. His lovingly lurid illustrations evoke both the sweetness and tragedy of these hopeful, yet hapless beings.
