Lit Mag Covers :: Picks of the Week

You shouldn’t judge a book by it’s cover, but it doesn’t mean the cover can’t be appealing. Here are a few magazines that came in this week that made me stop to think, say “wow,” or simply announce to my coworkers, “Hey, check out this cover!”

I simply had to include both the front and back cover of the volume 10 year of Ninth Letter. The cover perfectly captures the quirky and fun issue, filled with all sorts of goodies. Plus: cat. Meow.

Well, actually I have to include both the front and back of AGNI also. Here are the details: Fabio D’Aroma, Retrochrionica, 2011, oil on canvas, 30″ x 56″

And I guess while I’m at it, I should include the front and back of Beloit Poetry Journal as well. This was actually Casey’s pick, but I have to agree with him here.
