"In 1959 Liszt released THIS: Totentanz. His most acomplished album. I think his undisputed masterpiece is the first version for piano and orchestra, a piece so catchy, most people probably don't even read the partiture. But they should! Because it's not just about the obsession with death and the importance of carpe diem, but also a personal statement about list himself. Hey Alyona!"

I think the idea behind this cover's good, Joyce didn't add the "as a young man" to the title until after his first draft of it. Kinda mimics Joyce's constant revisions.

I mean don't get me wrong it looks like fucking trash and I'd never put it on my bookshelf, but...yeah

for design to be great it needs to be easily understood. see: crystal goblet

The only reason those covers are intelligible to you is because you are steeped in memes. Anyone who doesn't already know JJoyce will have difficulty deciphering those covers, and so they are weak design.

No way, that's great. Especially considering most covers of Lolita published today go directly against Nabokov's own advice and contribute to the misinterpretation of the novel.

>Who would be capable of creating a romantic, delicately drawn, non-Freudian and non-juvenile, picture for LOLITA (a dissolving remoteness, a soft American landscape, a nostalgic highway—that sort of thing)? There is one subject which I am emphatically opposed to: any kind of representation of a little girl.

Now that I think about it most popular publishers are aesthetically lacking. The gaudy standard in cover design of a reviewer blurb or ostentatious publisher name on covers is shit, not to mention ill-matching typographies. I think content should obviously supersede form in lit consumption but it wouldn't hurt for a more wholistic aesthetic experience.

I'm upset.

Why is it "Ravished by the Triceratops" instead of "Taken by the Triceratops"

"Taken" would fit so much fucking better
The other two titles start with "Taken"
All the dinosaur names start with T too

Chrisite Sims is a fucking hack
