Hooter: Musings on a book cover by a book lover

For a book that takes so little time to read, the thoughts linger a lot longer. Jhumpa Lahiri simply has a conversation with herself aloud that you overhear and resonate with. The metamorphical relationship book covers have on the book's identify , often with no inputs from the author whose work it adorns. The intersection of art and commerce in making it happen. I'd call this an interesting essay than a book though.
