You're familiar with Edward Gorey, whether you know it or not. The prolific author and illustrator, who was born 100 years ago this week, was ubiquitous for a time in the 1970s and 1980s, and his elaborate black-and-white line drawings — often depicting delightfully grim neo-Victorian themes and settings — graced everything from book jackets to the opening credits of the PBS show “Mystery!” to his own eccentric storybooks like “The Gashlycrumb Tinies,” in which young children come to unfortunate but spectacular ends.On this week's episode, the Book Review's Sadie Stein joins Gilbert Cruz for a celebration of all things Gorey.“He was so incredibly prolific,” Stein says. “He was Joyce Carol Oates-like in his output. And it's amazing when you look at the work because the line drawings, as you mentioned, are so intricate. It looks almost like pointillism sometimes, like it would have taken hundreds of hours. But he was either preternaturally disciplined or incredibly fast, and each one that I've ever seen at least is beautiful. And complete in a way.” Unlock full access to New York Times podcasts and explore everything from politics to pop culture. Subscribe today at nytimes.com/podcasts or on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

The Chamber, which represents the four districts of County Wexford - New Ross, Gorey, Wexford Town and Enniscorthy - says the new gift card will enhance convenience for consumers buying the card, businesses accepting the card, and organisations using the card for rewards and incentives. Retailers who currently accept the Shop Local Vouchers, and new businesses, can register to accept the forthcoming County Wexford Shop Local Gift Card with a simple one-time registration process. Backed by Mastercard, the County Wexford Shop Local Gift Card works with merchants' existing payment terminals. Shops, restaurants, pubs, attractions and hotels, including national brands and independents, are all eligible to accept the County Wexford Shop Local Gift Card, which will be available as either a physical card or an e-card that can be uploaded to digital wallets. Paula Roche, CEO at County Wexford Chamber, said the new gift card will enable even more money to be retained in Wexford: "The paper Shop Local Vouchers had lots of support and were a fantastic way for us to keep spend in the county, particularly from organisations buying the vouchers for their staff. The new Shop Local Gift Card is all about upping the convenience for all involved so when people are earning in County Wexford, we can make it even easier for them to spend that money locally. "The feedback we had was that people want a digital gift card. For most people, their wallet is their phone, and being able to add the e-card version of the County Wexford Shop Local Gift Card into their digital wallet and pay with it will be a huge step forward for our county. "Our mission is to present the best of the county in one gift card - from our amazing hotels and restaurants to our unique shops and pubs - so we can showcase County Wexford for locals and visitors alike." The County Wexford Shop Local Gift Card will be part of the multi-award-winning Town & City Gift Card concept active across Ireland in Ballinrobe, Carndonagh, Drogheda, Letterkenny, Sligo and Waterford.
