Association of University Presses Book, Jacket, and Journal Show 2021


Purpose

S

ince 1965, the Association of University Presses (AUPresses) Book, Jacket, and Journal Show has fulfilled its mission to “honor and instruct”: honoring the design and production teams whose work furthers a long tradition of excellence in book design, and— through a traveling exhibit and acclaimed annual catalog of selected entries—visually teaching the tenets of good design. The Book, Jacket, and Journal Show is a juried design competition, open only to AUPresses member publishers. Most years, the call-for-entries is distributed in autumn, and the jurors gather in AUPresses’ New York offices in January to examine hundreds of submissions and select the very best examples of book, journal, and cover designs. This year, because of the pandemic, entries were shipped to the jurors who made their selections remotely. Jurors are esteemed interior and cover designers appointed by the annual show committee. The show recognizes meritorious achievement in design, production, and manufacture of books, jackets, covers, and journals by members of the university press community. It also provides an evaluation of their work and serves as a focus of discussion and a source of ideas for intelligent, creative, and resourceful bookmaking. The 2021 show includes books published by AUPresses member presses in 2020 and jackets and covers of books published that year. Books may have been manufactured anywhere in the world, but imports and copublications from another publisher are not eligible. The 2021 Book, Jacket, and Journal Show will premiere at the AUPresses Annual Meeting, held virtually in June 2021. Afterward, conditions permitting, the show will be exhibited at member presses around the country from September 2021 through May 2022. Learn more about the show at design.up.hcommons.org.

STATE M E NT Thank you to the committee for inviting me to serve as a judge for the Association of University Presses Book, Jacket, and Journal Show. Soon after I agreed, six large and heavy boxes of books arrived at my door one brilliant Saturday afternoon, to my delight—and somewhat to my wife’s dismay. I tore into the cartons like a five-year-old on their birthday. The deprivations of the prior year of Covid isolation made the contents that much more thrilling to unpack; though I could not safely go out into the world, the world could still come safely to me. Books have a unique ability to comfort, and well-designed books to truly satisfy, particularly during these challenging times. Unlike previous years, when judges spend a couple of days with all entries displayed on conference room tables, because of the pandemic, my fellow juror, Andrew Shurtz, and I had the opportunity to live with these books in our homes and to take our time reviewing them. This allowed the evaluation process to unfold gradually. I made countless stacks and moved books from one stack to another as I inched toward final decisions. As a result of this fluid process, I found that some books that caught my eye at first soon wore thin and lost their appeal. Others that may not have sparkled from the get-go revealed their strengths over time. And of course, many books that stood out early on continued to impress me with good design. The entries we reviewed demonstrate that good design can take many forms, from lavishly illustrated books with apparently generous production values to modest volumes that perform their jobs with quiet dignity. Regardless of finances, the books that stand out to me are those that respect not only their written and visual content but equally respect the reader by facilitating an agreeable and engaging reading experience. As anyone who has designed books certainly knows, while this is an easy concept to grasp, it can be a challenge to pull off. While the vast majority of the books we selected were mutual picks, we each had a few that originally the other did not select. In the Zoom conversations Andrew and I had about these entries, we each took opportunities to make cases for reconsideration. In a number of instances, this deliberation led to a book’s ultimate inclusion. As a result, each selected book has the endorsement of us both. We elected not to write about each selection, believing that their strong designs speak clearly for themselves. It pleases me no end that the printed book is clearly alive and well. The experience of reviewing these entries has underscored for me that appreciation for beautifully-designed books is thriving, as well. Congratulations to all the books included here, and to the many talented and committed people involved in designing and producing them. Thank you for the work you do.

STATE M E NT It was a tremendous honor to be invited to judge this year’s AUPresses Book, Jacket, and Journal Show. I began my design career proudly working for LSU Press. I know firsthand the joys of having your design chosen for this competition, along with the disappointment of a favored book not getting picked. Seeing each year’s selections and digging through previous winners in old show catalogs opened me up to a world of interesting and thoughtful book design and typography. It’s no exaggeration to say that I’ve carried a deep fondness for this competition with me all these years. Given all of this, I stepped in to my role of juror with a lot of excitement and no small amount of anxiety. The first challenge was almost absurd. Since the world was upside down, the normal experience of hanging out in a small room for two days was exchanged for having all the entries shipped directly to my home. From the moment the boxes arrived, I was surrounded by books, both physically and mentally. I can describe this experience only as something akin to 101 Dalmatians, but with books instead of puppies. Books were shuffled in and out of boxes, grouped into piles, lined up on our dining room table, and moved back into boxes again so we could eat. They were there to greet me when I woke up in the morning and there to haunt me in my dreams. Still, most importantly, they gave me something exciting to focus my energies on anytime I had a spare moment. My three-year-old son, Paul, even decided to join the action by stacking his own board books into piles and adding them to the collection. I was fortunate to participate in this unique experience with Matthew Monk, my fellow juror. We quickly exchanged the time-honored book show tradition of extreme Post-It labelling for a more remote-friendly Airtable database setup. Through a series of entertaining Zoom calls, we were able to confirm our mutual picks and make a case for books the other hadn’t chosen. In the end, we arrived at a final set that we could stand behind completely. We both felt that the selections were strong enough to stand on their own without additional comments from us. After steeping in these books for so long, I would like to mention a few observations that really stood out to me: First, I was amazed at how nice the print-on-demand paperbacks looked and felt. Multiple times in the judging process, I was pleasantly surprised to pick up a book and only realize it was POD after seeing the tiny scan code stuck on the back page. I am proud that we were able to select a number of POD paperbacks this year, and I believe designers should feel confident in this as a completely valid production option. Secondly, I was thrilled to see such a wonderful amount of interesting and thoughtful text typography. A pet peeve of mine are books where all the design energy is concentrated on the display elements, leaving the main text lifeless. While reviewing these books, I was pleased to see a wide range of unexpected and downright daring choices in what might be the most essential core of what we do as book designers—making words both beautiful and readable. Seeing so many thoughtful and carefully designed books in publication has filled me with hope and inspiration. It was a joy to live with these books, and my immense pleasure to serve as their juror.

STATE M E NT What designer wouldn’t want seven boxes of books featuring beautifully designed covers to admire (oh, yes, and to judge)? How do you decide to part with them once the design competition is over, since beautiful as they are, they’re still seven boxes of books, many on topics you barely understand? These are university press volumes, often heady and incredibly specific, head-of-a-pin books that remind me just how un-smart I am. But those covers and jackets! What fantastic work their esteemed designers have crafted, sometimes on such remarkably complex topics (see paragraph above). Judging this design competition was a bit of a struggle since, honestly, they were all winners. And I was somewhat intimidated by working with an award-winning designer from Knopf, where so many amazing book covers originate. I was relieved that our initial selections were almost identical, proving perhaps I can still keep up with the kids after all these years. Book covers have to do a lot of heavy lifting these days. They live both on bookstore shelves and online as veritable Amazon postage stamps. They need to sell books. Our cover selections are smart, clear, engaging, appropriate, and ultimately, flat-out great design, stuff I wish I’d done myself. And isn’t envy always the true hallmark of design greatness? Congratulations to our selections! Well done. My seven boxes of books are making their way to a friend who owns a community-based used bookshop. But I kept a few. Okay, more than a few.

STATE M E NT It was an honor to be invited to judge this year’s show alongside the incomparable Gail Anderson. I knew that during a pandemic it was not going to be the usual process, but I couldn’t help fantasizing about meeting up with Gail at the AUPresses offices in Manhattan and devouring the beautiful books in person. Instead, seven large boxes of books promptly arrived stacked up on the front porch of my home in Montclair, New Jersey. We decided to start off individually—marking what designs were either a yes, no, or maybe. I sprawled the books out on my studio floor and wound up living with them for weeks. As a book cover designer with a decade of experience and as a new mother in a political and pandemic haze, I was looking for design that woke up my senses—both pushing the boundaries conceptually and rooted in typographical and design excellence. The value of production in this time felt more crucial than usual—how truly special to hold a quality object with uncoated paper, de-boss, or foil. Other designs stood just as strong without it, printed digitally with glossy lamination. Later we shared our yeses and maybes virtually, through a DropBox folder, and found that we overlapped in choice immensely. Via Zoom, we thought about how effectively the jackets communicated the message of the book, and we narrowed them down to fifty. Every book in this competition represents hours of devotion, and it showed. Congratulations to all who bring these wonderful books into the world. To the designers whose work is not represented here, please do not be discouraged. I urge you to continue working hard, critically evaluating your work, and connect with the designers you admire for feedback. If you’re wondering what I did with all of these wonderful books—most were donated to my local bookshop! I’m grateful to have kept a few for their interesting subject matter and sheer beauty.

Evaluering betyder vurdering. Det foregår hver dag i skolen. Lærerne evaluerer eleverne, eleverne vurderer lærerne, staten evaluerer eleverne og skolen lærerne. Formålene er forskellige, og det er deres virkning også. Nogle evalueringer kan gøre os dygtigere, andre kan kontrollere os. Derfor er det vigtigt, at lærere kender til evaluering på godt og ondt.

By looking through the hole from the outside, one can achieve an insight. Looking through from within, one has a view. To connect the books in the series further, in addition to the hole, the titles and the inside of the cover is always pale green. The color of the cover changes from book to book.

Everything is Relevant is the result of design consultations with Adam Michaels and Shannon Harvey of the Los Angeles-based studio IN-FO.CO to launch a series, but also to launch a new university press. This process involved the review of historical and contemporary artist writings monographs, resulting in the development of a very specific book design tailored to the written contents of the TEXT/CONTEXT series. The contents of the series present a unique typographic challenge: the scholarly treatment of writings that come from a variety of sources from blog entries, to personal letters, to longer form writings, to previously unpublished artists statements. In general, we were very pleased with the design direction’s balance of classical and contemporary elements, and its typography-forward accommodation of a range of materials.

DE S IG N E R COM M E NTS It’s a rare treat to design a scholarly book with ample leading and margins, illustrations on their own page, and all chapters beginning new recto. This title needed some lengthening after copy editing and I was only too happy to oblige. Despite it’s POD printing, I’m very proud of this design.

DE ZEE-ATLAS OF WATER-WERELT Den udgave af Donckers søatlas, som VejleMuseerne har i sin samling, består af 52 søkort, heriblandt et verdenskort, samt tre ark med indledende tekst og et titelblad. Især titelbladet og det indledende verdenskort er rigt illustreret, mens resten af samlingen fremstår mere jævn – i hvert fald i forhold til andre samtidige søatlasser.20 Oprindeligt var atlasset indbundet i et samlet læderbind, men blev i begyndelsen af 00’erne splittet op, således at det blev muligt at udstille kortene hver for sig. Man har dog beholdt det tidligere læderbind, i fald samlingen engang skal rekonstrueres. Hvordan søkortene er kommet til VejleMuseernes samlinger, er uvist. Det er dog sandsynligt, at søatlasset har været en del af etatsråd Christian Eckardts (1823-99) store samling, som han testamenterede til det kommende museum i Vejle i 1898. I hvert fald nævnes der ”Et hollandsk Søkort Atlas”21 i en udateret registratur over Eckardts kunst- og kulturhistoriske samling. Doncker forbedrede gennem hele sit liv søatlasset, men fra 1669 og frem bestod det konstant af omtrent 50 søkort, som dækkede hele verden. Flertallet af søkortene består af flere typer af kort. Det mest almindelige i samlingen er oversejlingskort, som

Nederst illustrerer en række keruber, hvordan forskellige navigationsredskaber skal anvendes. På den beskadigede nederste højre del var oprindeligt en illustration af en havfrue, som bliver holdt væk af et par keruber. Det illustrerer, at anvender man atlasset sammen med tidens navigationsredskaber, så kan man sikkert krydse verdenshavene. Ill. 7 Kort over Europa og Nordafrika. Bemærk, hvordan kortets centrum i Biscayabugten møder de 16 omkransende kompaspunkter.

DE S IG N E R COM M E NTS The title of the publication means navigations. The world as we know it is changing rapidly, and so is the way in which we navigate in the world. We used to navigate by intuition, seamaps, and printed guidebooks. One of the earliest and most famous guidebooks is the series of German guidebooks named Baedeker. The idea for the design of this book was to mix the old and the new. We therefore took the well-known elements from the Baedeker books and updated these. The color red, the golden foil on red vinyl, and the round corners. The grotesque font on the classic books was replaced by a brand-new designed grotesque font (Toy). The Baedeker was printed on bible-paper and we therefore printed on the thinnest paper available. For the inside we chose a visible grid for the layout—the visible grid will give the reader associations to the Atlas and its latitudes.

DE S IG N E R COM M E NTS The volume’s large and relatively tall format is based on the proportions of the human body—or rather its clothing. The format provides room for the illustrations to be reproduced in the largest size possible, thus emphasizing finer details such as individual cuts, grains of fabric, and seams. It was a guiding principle to let the typography take a back seat to illustrations. The beauty, opulence, length, and workmanship of the garments are the star attraction, and apart from the opening page’s use of large typography, virtually all other typographic tricks and elements have been purposely held back. Headlines utilize burgundy capitals for catalogued garments, while simple burgundy squares mark the descriptive texts that accompany each illustration.

CHAPTER TWO

The First Encounter All the while that the plant kingdom was morphing, growing, and evolving, the animal kingdom was on its own circuitous trajectory. When green algae first washed up on land, the oceans had been teeming with life. But plants weren’t the first higher organism on terra firma—a centipede, maybe 18 inches long with a couple of dozen legs, had left its imprint as it scuttled across the sand dunes tens of millions of years before the first liverwort, up on land to lay eggs or escape a predator. But land was no more hospitable for animals than it was for plants, and without the plants’ ingenious cell walls, animals needed a way to hold themselves up outside the buoyant oceans and to keep from drying out. Amphibians were the first group after insects and scorpions to try life outside the pool, and they split their time between aquatic and terrestrial environments. Early amphibians were covered with scales, like the later evolving reptiles, to maintain their moisture on land. Mammals didn’t appear and flourish until long after plants were flowering, but our tale focuses on just one section of their part of the evolutionary tree: the branches that ended up in Homo sapiens sapiens. The details of how our species evolved are pieced together from scattered skeletons and bones, and each new discovery not only adds another piece to the puzzle but sometimes has us revising much of the story.1 That said, the rough outline is that 15 or 20 hominin species proliferated over the last 6 million years. Our genus, Homo, split off from the others about 2 million years ago, 23

chapter nine

depend on them, how species evolve and adapt to changing environments—we could be doing a much better job of growing food within an ecological framework. That would mean incorporating at a larger scale the practices some farmers already use: rotating crops, diversifying fields, keeping soils healthy, and scattering nonagricultural land amid our fields as habitat for animals and insects that are part of a healthy ecological system. But how do you inspire changes in practices, particularly if those changes might mean lower short-term financial gains, and run counter to recommendations of global industries, which have prospered by marketing products that make farming easier and more productive? Farmers make decisions with an eye to markets and regulatory requirements. For a crop like wheat, those markets are often regional or international, rarely local. As long as ecology is separate from food production, and long-term ecological costs aren’t included in the calculations of short-term economic gains, we can continue to grow crops with blinders on.

EPILOGUE

An Eternal Harvest The first plants that colonized land 400 million years ago changed the earth’s surface by breaking apart the rocks into a substrate that slowly developed into soil. They changed the trajectory of life by adding oxygen to the atmosphere to create a chemistry that favored the evolution of animals, including us. Of all the different species of plants—almost 400,000—there are an impressively small handful of species that we use as food. Wheat possesses characteristics that since the early days of our relationship have ensured its place as one of the most important plants for our species. Its seeds are nutritious and large compared with the other grasses. Their capacity for storage was a preadaptation for us; we used those seeds as a source of currency, a commodity to be transported long distances and traded for other foods or luxuries, and a staple food for people around the world. The cuisines that developed have generated a delectable variety of ways to cook or bake with wheat. Buttery layers of croissants, hard- crusted artisanal loaves of wholegrain bread, thick crackers, steamed buns, light chapati loaves, pasta of all shapes, Asian noodles, sweet baklava, flaky piecrusts, tabouleh, bulgur pilaf, burbara and other wheat berry porridges, pita bread, dumplings, matzos, pancakes, cookies, muffins, wontons, 187

The labyrinths we enter when reading a story with circular narrative (“ring composition”), the mirrors we find while wandering in those stories that reflect back on the beginnings, the new dimensions we find—or get lost in—in them. A fascinating book to design: the page from a rare edition of the Odyssey, which takes us to the beginning of such a narrative, the new dimension introduced through the sense of touch (debossed labyrinth of the jacket). The three “rings” in the jacket, reminiscent of Turkish tiles patterns, which subtly bring Istanbul into the picture—the seminal location of exile in this book—are also to be found in the interior, aiming for a delicate balance so that the reader can be immersed in the universe of the book without being overwhelmed by graphics.

the process of manufacture [shoddy] loses its identity. Its nature facilitates the practice of fraud and deceit.24

The stakes were thus high and multifarious; shoddy was a substance through which a debate about old clothes and mattress stuffing could be cast in terms of a battle between good and evil, order and dissolution, staged in the nation’s highest court. “The prohibition of the use of shoddy, new or old, even when sterilized, is unreasonable and arbitrary,” the court decided, but for Holmes and the other dissenters, this seemed far from true. These issues point to the ways in which shoddy (which “loses its identity,” in Holmes’s words, in the very “process of its manufacture”), a term whose original nominative meaning is today all but forgotten, generated such panic and alarm. Shoddy’s manufacture requires, in part, the active fashioning of erasure—of making disappear the sick people, old clothes, and their wearers and handlers, the physical and emotional spaces where they came from, the people who were touching and collecting them. Its instability as a commodity results from both the constantly shifting origins of its component rags and also the inherent imperfection of such attempts at erasure; a trace will always remain. This book’s purpose is not only to challenge and provoke, but also to reveal the hidden graces of the shoddy world, beauties both terrible and tender. Three acts and an epilogue cross axes of chronology and geography. Taken together, they open up the rich world of this peculiarly unstable entity in hopes that a fuller understanding of that world can help us think anew about the myriad textile surfaces that both separate and link the human and the nonhuman, the human-made and what is itself composed of human stuff, the “alien” and the “comfortingly” familiar.

Fig. 2.9 “Service and Shoddy—A Picture of the Times.” From Harper’s Weekly, October 24, 1863, p. 677. (Courtesy of Harvard Library.)

The contractor and the contractor’s wife—sometimes known as Mr. and Mrs. Shoddy, or even just Shoddy and Mrs. Shoddy—was a common trope in a range of late and postwar satirical prose and visual polemic. The characters were often ethnic “others,” always ostentatious, callous, unseemly, and generally overdressed.46 The Mrs. Shoddy figure became especially resonant as a figure of derision and mockery. Superficiality characterized these figures, precursors to the inhabitants of the Gilded Age that Mark Twain would describe in his eponymous novel of a few years later.47 In the meanwhile, novels such as the above-mentioned The Days of Shoddy, whose elegant frontispiece (fig. 2.6) literally branded an outwardly elegant overcoat with a label of the era, focused on a “shoddy aristocracy” of depraved and vulgar wealthy opportunists. Although Morford’s characters weren’t named Mr. and Mrs. Shoddy, shoddy predominates as an adjective that refers not so much to articles that are poorly made as to a lack of “class,” morals, and courage—in other words, to express derision toward the parvenu or the nouveau riche enjoying their 84

ACT I

Devil’s Dust Day after day, I must thatch myself anew; day after day, this despicable thatch must lose some film of its thickness; some film of it, frayed away by tear and wear, must be brushed-off into the Ashpit, into the Laystall; till by degrees the whole has been brushed thither, and I, the dust-making, patent Rag-grinder, get new material to grind down. T H O M A S C A R LY L E , S A R T O R R E S A R T U S ( 1 8 3 3 – 3 6 )

For as long as there have been clothes (“worn” by definition), there have been old clothes. And certainly, long before shoddy, there was a trade in textile reuse. From their origins in the first days of human culture, clothes were portable technologies, wearable media, and temporary prostheses, shaped by the demands of a mobile body and inscribed with markers of that body’s history. They were (and remain) artifacts—articles of manufacture—in continual flux, though in earlier times exchanges of old and new were fewer and farther between. Throughout the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, clothing, once shaped to a given body, might be worn for years, sometimes a lifetime. Through the movements of a body in time, its clothes would acquire increasingly personal and human characteristics—worn knees and elbows, a stretched waist. Stains, patches, tears, and color changes accompanied a life journey, or at least several decades thereof. In the Renaissance, it was common for servants to sell their masters’ old clothing to peasants in neighboring villages. In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, itinerant rag and old clothes dealing grew into a profession, increasingly associated with the manufacture of paper, including paper money. In particular, 19

ill-gotten luxuries on the backs of soldiers dying at the front.48 If there had once been hopes that the new shoddy class would face a swift comeuppance, that expectation had evidently faded: the rich and poor in Nast’s image remain wholly separate from each other, leaving the poor, honest, and patriotic without visible recourse. This is two nations, to refer back to Benjamin Disraeli’s characterization of 1840s England, distinct from that demanded by the secessionists.49 George Isaac Reed’s extended poem The Russian Ball, or The Adventures of Miss Clementina Shoddy (1863) makes a similar point, employing the language of “Shoddydom” and crass female “Shoddyites.” It also includes the theme of foreignness (Russians, in this case), as seen in the placement of the flag and other symbols of the nation on the cover (fig. 2.10).50 It thereby highlights the connection between shoddy and patriotism and, by negative implication, treason. (Note the American flag in the upper-right corner of the cover, with “shoddy” labeled immediately below it.) Reed’s verse describes the luxurious life of one Miss Clementina Shoddy, whose lifestyle is paid for by her father (the contractor Père Shoddy). Reed dramatically juxtaposes Miss Shoddy’s many foreign flirtations with the concurrent suffering of American soldiers at the front. All Shoddydom flutters with great expectation; The night of the ball to the guests of the nation. The bosoms of thousand fair Shoddyites pant with triumph: They’re going, while thousands more can’t.

Reed’s verse expands the latter suggestion into a virtual tableau of war: I saw at the ball Shoddy sensual and dull, Exclaiming: “Ha! ha! I have eaten my full.” But there at his feet (in my true waking dream) Was rolling a swollen and dark southern stream, And near it a soldier, who lay by its brink, All bleeding and dying and praying for drink. He’d fought for the flag, in a skirmish he fell, Unknown and alone he was dying—Ah, well, 85

DE S IG N E R COM M E NTS This book will be the first monograph in over twenty years to present the work of artist Michael Ray Charles, a Louisiana-born painter who has spent the last several decades living and working in Texas. The selection of over one hundred full-color plates is preceded by an interview with MRC and followed by a deeply researched contextualizing essay from Smith. Smith begins with a list of the symbols that have long animated Charles’ work. She continues: “ . . . artist Michael Ray Charles remembers the ubiquity of such images and objects, recalls the casualness with which they were displayed, and recollects the feelings of nostalgia and sympathy they call up for certain viewers. He also understands the shame and anger they provoke. Charles knows the many ways they function, but for him, they are, first and foremost, objects of inquiry.” Charles’s work has often been considered in terms of its commercial American print media sources. Borrowing from these sources their subjects, colors, and type styles, Charles’s pictures are made to look aged but are updated with contemporary references to the cultural traffic in black bodies.

DE S IG N E R COM M E NTS Fat Face was chosen to be the typeface of the book for both of its exaggerated thick and thin strokes that vividly illustrate the broadness, flatness, and the curves of the lotus leaves. One recurring theme of Leung’s poem is “cross-boundary,” be it traditional and contemporary, East and West, or dialogues between different art forms. This is expressed on the cover with contrasting colors, green and pink (colors of the lotus and its leaves), that beautifully fuse together, creating scene of vibrant silence. For the inside pages, the idea of “cross-boundary” once again appears on the contents page, where strokes are placed between page numbers and poem’s title, and between the poem’s English and Chinese titles. Illustrations on the openings of each chapter capture the main themes by using visual elements with strong symbolic meaning.

DE S IG N E R COM M E NTS “The Best China, an expression traditionally used to refer to the finest crockery brought out when one is entertaining special guests, has been adapted here to mean the best Chinese tradition of free-thinking discursive prose.” I adopt this metaphor and I also wish to show that Hong Kong has always been a good mix of East and West, it takes the best of both cultures. Hong Kong is neither English nor Chinese; it is exquisite in a quirky way.

ART DI R ECTOR

DE S IG N E R COM M E NTS This title, comprised of two very modern short stories with dragons playing a prominent role in both tales, has deep roots in the Chinese literature of the remote past, as well as strong overtones of magical realism and surrealism. These characteristics are weaved together by using “Beastly,” an Egyptian typeface, with unique typographic features that resemble the form of this fascinating creature. The dragon that looms in the background is waving through the twilight zone; gold, black, and silver, together with the grainy texture, all create a mystical gothic atmosphere that echoes the stories.

DE S IG N E R COM M E NTS The original Chinese edition of this book is one of the first full-length stream-of-consciousness novels written in 1962. I want to bring out both the hallucinative world and the philistine reality a drunkard would have encountered, hence the psychedelic color scheme and the fluid and abstract image. The color scheme also pays tribute to the symbolic neon lights of Hong Kong. The font Bookman Swash resembles wine pouring, adding to the debauched atmosphere.

DE S IG N E R COM M E NTS This book is a “chicken soup” for everyone, especially young people who wants to become a physician and seek for advice. The cover illustration was one selected from many of the author’s paintings, which reminds me The Catcher in the Rye, where young people confused about the future. Soft pink is used to convey a warm-hearted tone. The design is intended to resemble a doctor’s notebook. This is achieved by the pink block in the center where the title sits, and an actual elastic band is attached at the back cover. The italic “So . . .” and the underline on “Become a Physician” enhance the delightful, conversational tone of the title.

T

hrough technological experiments, readers have seen the concept of the book change over the years, and the novel reflects these experiments, acting as a kind of archive for information. Out of Print reveals that the novel continues to shape popular understandings of information culture, even as it adapts to engage with new media and new practices of mediating information in the digital age. This innovative study chronicles how the print book has fared as both novelists and the burgeoning profession of information science have grappled with unprecedented quantities of data across the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. As the novel’s archival project took a critical turn from realism to an investigation of the structures, possibilities, and ideologies of information media, novelists have considered ideas about how data can best be collected and stored. Julia Panko pairs case studies from information history with close readings of modernist works such as James Joyce’s Ulysses and Virginia Woolf’s Orlando and contemporary novels from Jonathan Safran Foer, Stephen King, and Mark Z. Danielewski that emphasize their own informational qualities and experiment with the aesthetic potential of the print book. “This is a complex and fascinating book that has illuminating things to say about the novel as a genre; about the future of the book, the future of the novel, and the future of literary reading; about the form of information and the category of form itself; and about the information ecology of the digital world. It is lucidly and elegantly written, and its scholarship is impressively detailed and rigorous.” —John Frow, author of Character and Person “Out of Print explores the continued importance and power of the book in a digital age of increased big data. It draws from many important works of scholarship across the interdisciplinary fields of new media, book history, and literary studies. This weaving together of scholarship and literary texts, from modernism and contemporary literature, is a valuable contribution.”

DE S IG N E R COM M E NTS Hysteria explores author Katerina Bryant’s struggles and experiences with psychiatric disorders, and the complex world of mental health, specifically that of women, and their questionable treatment throughout history. For the cover I used an image of a classic bust of Venus that has been glitched and distorted, a visual representation of how the women Bryant writes about have been viewed by the medical industry. To compliment this, I also distorted the typography so that some letters were stretched out.

DE S IG N E R COM M E NTS The first round of submissions included a cover with railroad tracks, a fairly large image, crossing the cover, and the text sitting rather small beneath it. It was a handsome cover. But putting the tracks across the title in the second round was a stroke of genius. This became one of our favorites of the season.

DE S IG N E R COM M E NTS For this reprinted and revised edition of My Mexico, I was inspired by the original cover design from 1998 that used intricate illustrations and patterns from Jorge Enciso’s Design Motifs of Ancient Mexico (1947). I also kept in mind Kennedy’s love for environmentalism, which led me to using this abstract plant/flower pattern that I turned and repeated to feel like rows of a garden or vines climbing up a wall. I chose a thick slab serif and bright yellow to compliment Diana’s vigorous personality, while counterbalancing it with a cool beige to keep it feeling organic.

DE S IG N E R COM M E NTS The author’s ideas of using a silhouette to play off the dual-meaning of “cameo” lead to this fun design, which features a pastiche concept as an homage to Saul Bass movie posters. Since Bass designed the poster for Vertigo, there’s a nod to Hitchcock and his numerous film cameo appearances, discussed at some length in the book.

Once the rough concept was approved by Yale’s Cover Team and the author, I had a bespoke stamp fashioned by the experts at Blade Rubber Stamps. I then stamped out “Anger” dozens of times, until I achieved the desired amount of vexation for each portion of the title. The final jacket uses two Pantone inks, including a neon.
