I’ve been meaning to start this for awhile, but my work is so rarely done.
To get this game off to a good start, I thought I’d mention the book I just started reading. I’ve heard a lot about Lady Chatterley’s Lover, but I’d never felt like reading it until I discovered this edition:
It’s one of the new Penguin Classics Deluxe covers and there’s a whole series, featuring covers by many a talented artist. I like this one best, if only because it’s done by a Canadian. Although, the fact that the inside flap features depictions of all of D.H.’s relationships with women, captioned with “Whom Aside from Frieda D.H.L. F**ked,” also helps. Can’t wait to update my collection with Cold Comfort Farm and Candide.
I think Penguin’s fallen a little behind, however, as all they have to say about their snazzy new outfits is: “We’ve got some of the best graphic artists to design our jackets this month. They’re really fun and rather great.”
Umm…duh?
