I’m not saying it’s THE WORST cover for Frankenstein, but…

Victoria Frankenstein, or The Modern Office Decorator.

Apparently, the cover designer was told that this was Literary Fiction of the Most Important Type. And she (that’s gotta be a woman’s cover, just sayin’) followed through with a classic LitFic cover.

No other explanation. I mean, of all the dreck that we see here, that is the most inexplicable to me.

No, this kinda make sense. I mean, seems like FRANKENSTEIN would be into IKEA.

The really classy touch is that white (border? Underscore with blocks) under the word Frankenstein. I mean, that just pulls the entire ensemble together to make a compelling cover. (sigh).
