... I was surprised to realize that Joan Didion
has very few fantastic book covers. I really don’t understand it.
They’re rarely horrible, and some are iconic (mostly because of what’s
inside) but they’re usually quite boring: just plain-text covers, or
sometimes strange collages, or sometimes (often better) old photos of
Didion herself. So with that in mind, here are a few of her best—and a
few of her worst. NB that I haven’t ranked all of her covers—there are
many varieties on many a theme—but instead chose notable and
representative versions. And necessarily, these are the aesthetic
preferences of one woman—and I found some of them quite difficult to
compare, spread as they are over so many decades and styles—so feel free
to argue for your own favorites below.
