@stagefright__ Letters to my dead, as Canetti said… Gazing at waves breaking on rocks earlier today I too thought of the cover. Lovely to then see it here.

@dreamsofbeing_ It has an appearance of a book-shaped letter, clearly a book but also of something sent addressed. Cover design is such an interesting art.
