By May 26, 2018Literature, The Classics

Have you ever read a book simply because you liked the cover art? If so, you’re not alone. Book cover designs can often persuade someone to buy a book or inspire us to read something from a new author or genre. Because of this, each book design is thoroughly planned out, sometimes even two years before the book is published. Designers work closely with the editor or publishing house to create a book cover that everyone is happy with. From then on, book covers continue to change over time which is why those that are memorable are that much more impressive.

This infographic on famous book covers from Invaluable shows some of the most impressive, iconic book covers and the designers who brought them to life. From Brave New World to The Great Gatsby, see if you can recognize these fantastically designed covers.
