I'm looking for well designed or great looking book covers for my collection.

Recommend me some.

>> No.3017324

The SF Masterworks series have some pretty cool covers imo.

this cover is greatly marred by the rest of the collection (that overplays the eye concept), but still as a standalone is pretty good looking.

haven't been able to find a copy nline though.

If you like those Camus ones you'd probably like the ones Dalkey Archive and New Directions do.

I really like this cover for some reason. Simple yet it has a certain amount of class(?), don't know if that's the right word but you get the idea.

Why do all of Camus's covers consist of black lines on a white background?
