Super sad true love story : a novel
This cover is designed by American graphic designer Rodrigo Corral and subtly conveys the novel's critique of consumerism and technological alienation through repetitive typography, vibrant colors, and a graphic font style.
The title of the book is broken up into sections and arranged in a grid, creating a visual effect of information bombardment reminiscent of advertising campaigns and information overload in the age of social media. Colored dots are interspersed with black circles, creating a strong contrast that makes the book title stand out. The font is in a vintage handwritten style that resembles a merchandise label, further reinforcing the irony of love, sadness, and authenticity being quantified and trafficked. The overall design is both modern and profound, not only catching the reader's eye, but also echoing the novel's core themes with precision.
