Omschrijving
Part biography, part showcase for some of McConnell's most celebrated designs, this book gathers McConnell's exclusive redesign for Faber & Faber - a revolutionary new approach to book covers from the early 1980s.
Robert McCrum was the editorial director of Faber & Faber from 1979-1989, where he worked alongside John McConnell. He has written six novels, and co-authored The Story of English (1986). A regular contributor to the Guardian, he was also the literary editor of the Observer between 1996 and 2008.
