Talk about different! Size, title, style, everything. Seems like the US might win this one, though — otherwise known as “what happens when Penguin gets it.” No designer listed (for either).

The top one has a nice continuity with Penguin’s cover of Orwell’s Burmese Days.

Indeed. Good call!

Sorry to edit the comment, too. Insert quotes like that by using an open quote, the text you want to be the link, a closed quote, a colon, and the URL. Without the spaces, that’s:

” Text to be the link ” : URL

Make sure there’s a space after the URL. Thanks!
