And to think that I found this cover on an ebook site which touts how good the featured covers are…
| Should this cover be in the Lousies? |

This is like a weird quiz game: how many things can you identify on the cover? Is there a face in there?
I feel like I see a face too, but I can’t actually identify any features.
It’s weird, right? I feel like it should be there, but it isn’t.
Look under the “g,” between the g and the e. It’s a face. Not human, but…a little stone gargoyle, or Japanese demon?
I think it’s the uh purplish veil? lightning? kind of forms the shape of a triangular face. Then the flowers and the indentations (whatever they are) look a bit like eyes and noses. In particular there’s a vague nose-like shape between the a and the s, I think?
Although that purple thing does kinda look like a demon, doesn’t it?
You’re right! It looks like an Easter Island head. Right under the g in passage.
I thought that was a shadow of an invisible swan, but it does look like a face.
I’m still seeing glimpses of eyes and noses on the left side, but when I try to focus on them, they’re gone. The more I look at it, though, the more disturbing it gets.
Layers. One more reason to hate ’em.
It’s like a geisha and a nature photographer took turns throwing up on it.
WIN!
