# The Iron Tonic: Or, a Winter Afternoon in Lonely Valley - Hardcover

by **Edward Gorey** (Author)

It's difficult to say what _The Iron Tonic_ is about, although it is "known the skating pond conceals a family of enormous eels," and that "the light is fading from the day. The rest is darkness and dismay." Finally, though, _The Iron Tonic_ could be seen as Edward Gorey's version of a winter afternoon in one of the great Russian novels of the nineteenth century.
