Am I the only one that finds the book cover quite off-putting? It definitely stands out in a "purple cow" sort of way, but I can't help but think that it will affect sales (even though the book will no doubt do well regardless.)
That said, I look forward to reading it, and I'm sure it will be awesome.
- boyter 15y agoSomewhat... At first I thought it was some sort of bizarre CD cover (you know the type) and kept looking then noticed it was actually about a book. So it worked in that respect to get me in, although I was a little confused at first. I guess it worked though because I promptly bought a copy.
- Alex3917 15y ago"It definitely stands out in a 'purple cow' sort of way" It's almost as if they were designed by the same person... :-) (Derek's book is published by The Domino Project, which is run by Seth Godin, who wrote Purple Cow. The actual artwork isn't by the same person, but all Domino book covers have a similar look and feel.)
