What book has the best cover of all time?

...

>tfw you have the Wordsworth classic edition

o i am cryin

I'm surprised nobody has posted that gay TBK cover yet. I don't even know if its real kek

My unironic submission. The classical statue illustrated in a decidedly modernist style set against the backdrop of a cartoonish set with the curtains dropping behind it is, perhaps, the best visual summation of a novel i've ever seen.

It's excellence only becomes apparent after reading the book which IMO is a good quality for a cover to have.

Jesus Christ, no.

OK OP. I think Gatsby is a good, not a great, novel. But that cover is among the all-time greats. Truly a great work of design. Here is my vote. .

Books shouldn't have anything on their covers but plain white and the title.

>implying the cover isn't a contributory element of the unity of purpose of a novel

Relax user, have a beer.

literally Cat in the Hat

lmao just looks like the non halloween version of this

this
like it or not, the cover is part of the book, and its quality reflects on its content

shitty books dont get nice editions

dr seuss is patrish

It's ogre.

never try to talk about art again

>"great work of design"
>literally just a famous painting with a title over the top

This.

Was actually illustrated by the author.

you're supposed to take the cover jacket off, it's like a candy wrapper

I find this one particularly satisfying

Sweet Jesus why

Its meant to keep dust off because its a dust jacket

...

Seconded.

pablos illustrations are the best

Patrician opinion.
