Critique of Book Cover 


It was agreed in the critique that this was the strongest. Based on Toru's indecisive attempts to commit to one relationship, the cover features a back cover consisting of a mix of jumbled arrows all facing in different directions. The front cover features the 'Norwegian Wood' title made from the same cluster of arrows. 



One potential idea brought up in the critique was to laser cut the book cover out on plywood and take a photo of that and present that on the cover(s) of the book. The text on this laser cut piece would be facing in random directions, similar to the cover above.

Another idea was to have the arrows surrounding two bubbles, one on the front and one on the back, which would include the text in the middle of.  This cover will feature an arrow style typeface as well.
