I normally have an aversion to white, grime-attracting covers (it’s the ex-bookseller in me), but I love, love, love this cover for Obsession: A History by Lennard J. Davis, designed by Isaac Tobin (as seen at The Book Design Blog):
It’s another great cover that doesn’t entirely rely on photoshop wizardry – the lettering was apparently created by illustrator Lauren Nassef, using pinpricks through heavy cardstock.
There are more great covers designed by Isaac at his website. Lauren’s work is also lovely.
