Cover Me

I am totally late to this party, but I have to share a song that I've had on permanent repeat the last two weeks. "Somebody That I Used to Know" by Gotye featuring Kimbra, only the video above is a clever cover by Walk Off the Earth that might be almost better than the original. Either way, this song has gotten me through a pretty-tough-stress-full-too-busy couple of weeks. Have a listen! Hope you like!

Lo Lee Ta

I looove this cover designed by Jamie Keenan for my favorite novel of all time: Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov. This brilliant and subtle double entendre-d image, along with 60 other redesigns, was part of a cover competition organized by John Bertram that will soon be compiled for a book titled Recovering Lolita. Co-edited by Yuri Leving, the book also includes essays on historical cover treatments, and is due out in June.

Visit imprint to see some of the other designs, as well as this awesome online trove of past Lolita covers.
