Book Cover of the Day

Eating Animals
By Jonathan Safran Foer
Back Bay Books $14.99

Typography! I love that they didn't use any black to outline the letters, no extra additives... I like this cover a lot even though I might never actually read it. I enjoy my blissfully ignorant carnivorism and I'm afraid if I read this I won't enjoy my food anymore (it does seem a little like vegan propaganda to me even though I know what he says is true). I do agree that we need to eat actual food as Michael Pollan would say, food that our grandmothers would recognize, and to eat animals that aren't kept in factories. At any rate, depressing food industry talk aside, I really like this cover.
