A highly anticipated, LP inspired issue
The "Covers Issue" features today's top writers rewriting (or covering) classic stories. To name a few, there's Roxane Gay channeling Margaret Atwood, Jess Walter embodying James Joyce, Meg Wolitzer taking on J.D. Salinger—fourteen stories, all told, spanning a slipcased set of five paperback volumes, each featuring stunning illustrations by the award-winning design outfit Aesthetic Apparatus.
Guest–art directed by legendary album-cover designers Gary Burden and Jenice Heo of R. Twerk & Co.
