Strange Book Covers
So lets just judge the cover, not the books, a simple cover that can tell so much. It holds the title, the words hiding an entire story behind them more or less interesting. That is why some cannot pass without being observed and analyzed.
In general, there are books that we don't usually need and at the first sight they might seem funny and totally weird.


"This paperback is very interesting, but I find it will never replace a hardcover book – it makes a very poor doorstop." (Alfred Hitchcock) No other words could be more true.
Her wooden books are simply amazing: the covers are not only strange by shape, but also have the power of giving an unusual strength and bondage to those thin pages between them.

I also found these books of shadows which seemed pretty unusual too . Their covers are beautifully carved and full of symbolism, each of them prepared to hide a world of magic and mystery.

And the last one and most interesting I could say:
Fairytales Artist book
(COVER: Copper, Wood; PAGES: Mixed Media by Peter Madden)

Y si no, echad un vistazo a estas portadas de libros tan horteras raras, pero como diría el gran Papuchi: rara, rara, rara. Decidme qué haríais vosotros si os encontráis con algo así en una tienda. Seguro que lo abréis para ver que contiene, ¿o no? [...]
