i like burton

Recently I have become a fan of Tim Burton. His dark take on life, reflected in his films, is really funny. He is, of course, best known for his films, including Batman, Edward Scissorhands and most recently, Corpse Bride.

He has also written a book of short stories and poems, entitled The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy & Other Stories. It also displays Burton's dark nature and is very much inspired by Edward Gorey. It is only 60 pages long and takes about 20 minutes to read from cover to cover (it has lots of pictures!), so is well worth buying or borrowing from a library (or me)
