Just rest assured nobody knows what they're doing -- we're just here for the chaos and romance... Acceptance by Emi Nietfeld; design by Stephanie Ross (Penguin Press / August 2022) As It Turns Out by Alice Sedgwick Wohl; design by Alex Merto (Farrar, Straus & Giroux / August 2022) And kudos to Alex for not putting the author or the title -- or any text at all! -- on the cover (and getting away with it)... Brother Alive by Zain Khalid; design by Jo Walker (Grove Press UK / August 2022) Brown Neon by Raquel Gutiérrez; design by Alban Fischer (Coffee House Press / June 2022) Even the Darkest Night by Javier Cercas; design by Jack Smyth (Knopf / June 2022) The Foghorn Echoes by Danny Ramadan; design by Jennifer Griffiths (Viking Canada / August 2022) Kiki Man Ray by Mark Braude; design by Jaya Miceli (W.W.

The Last White Man by Mohsin Hamid; design by Ahlawat Gunjan (India Hamish Hamilton / August 2022) You can listen to Ahlawat Gunjan talk about his life and work in this charming TEDx talk from 2020. The typographic cover of the UK edition of The Last White Man, also published by Hamish Hamilton this month, was designed by Chris Bentham. The Lovers by Paolo Cognetti; design by Etta Voorsanger-Brill (Harvill Secker / June 2022) The cover of the US edition, published by HarperVia, was designed by Alicia Tatone: Mother Noise by Cindy House design by Catherine Casalino (Scribner / May 2022) Sharp Edges by Leah Mol; design by Jennifer Griffiths (Doubleday Canada / August 2022) Till the Wheels Come Off by Brad Zeller; design by Alban Fischer (Coffee House Press / July 2022) You can read about Alban's process for this cover at Spine Magazine. We Move by Gurnaik Johal; design by Jack Smyth (Serpent's Tail / April 2022) Pink and orange -- and pink and orange combinations -- are definitely a thing at the moment.
