I love your book covers! I remember loving Middlesex last year, esp. the negative shapes. Great book. I'm reading Charlotte Simmons now. Again, I love the negative shape of the female figure, this time, die-cut to show the title page of the book. The imagery of natural objects- branches, flowers, vines, birds? is provides great texture too, with that gloss! Brilliant look.
I am actually the proud owner of the not paperback (since we don't really have hardcovers here) French version. It is really beautiful and faithfull to your original concept.
I discover this blog today. It's already one of my favorite.
