It’s a bit of a shame. Though the execution is dreadful a ship sailing on a river of stars isn’t a horrible visual for what this book looks to be about. Why literally every phrase seems to be in quotes in their book blurb (on Amazon) is beyond me though.

I was about to say the same. Why the quotation marks on everything!? Even the title – and I assume the author just doesn’t know what quotation marks mean – but it implies they aren’t actually treasures!

People get mixed up. I’ve seen it often–people think that putting quotes around something acts as an emphasis, rather than indicating irony or other proper uses of quotation marks. I had a friend who did that–when she’d ask me to proof her stuff, it would drive me crazy. And then, of course, it would drive her crazy. 🙂

“Air Quotes” are emphasis — of a hideous negativity sort.

We need an Inigo Montoya poster. “You keep using that punctuation, I do not believe it means what you think it means.”

OMG, that’s perfect. We need that for all sorts of purposes, not only CC.com, but it should gain entrance to the CC.com Hall of Fame for GOOD stuff.

I think the dilapidated boat represents a “diminishing nation” and I hope it does not represent a “hidden treasure” nor a “”heavenly prescription””.
Positive Reinforcement: made me pause and think about cover and title.
Hideous Negativity: made me wonder, what were they thinking?

“By ‘Treasures’ we mean stuff a five-year-old boy keeps in his pockets and by ‘Heavenly Prescription’ we mean some stuff our Lord and Master Satan pulled from his bowels and served up to us as part of his globalization scheme.”
