Judges' Comments
‘Violent with nods to the political iconography that inspired the book. A cover that would work on any oppressive manifesto’ Orlando Weeks
‘A timeless cover that works on so many levels – I felt that we could have talked about the symbolism of the central form for a long time! Striking, thoughtful, clever and super eye-catching’ Indi Davies
‘Very hard to separate from the winner – this was a very close second. It’s a powerful design that works on different levels. Completely original, striking and clever’ John Hamilton – Art Director, Penguin General
‘It conveys the message of the book in graphic form with a nod to authoritarian insignia and the colours of the oppressive regimes. Clean and clever and somehow devastating’ Joanna Prior – Managing Director, Penguin General Books
‘This one stood out from the start. A brave and unique book cover’ Jim Stoddart – Art Director, Penguin Press
