Alternative Down and Out cover, mark II

[image]

Andrew Crocker writes, "I'm a senior art student at Colorado State University. Recently we
had an assignment where we were supposed to make a "3D
illustration"
(make a sculpture, light it and photograph it) dust jacket and 2
page
spread for one of our favorite books. I chose Down and Out, and
thought I might send you the cover."

This is really striking and lovely design work. Nice job, Andrew! Thanks so much!

Cory Doctorow doesn’t just write about the future – I think he lives there. Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom isn’t just a really good read, it’s also, like the best kind of fiction, a kind of guide book. See the Tomorrowland of Tomorrow today, and while you’re there, why not drop by Frontierland, and the Haunted Mansion as well? (It’s the Mansion that’s the haunted heart of this book.) Cory makes me feel nostalgic for the future – a dizzying, yet rather pleasant sensation, as if I’m spiraling down the tracks of Space Mountain over and over again. Visit the Magic Kingdom and live forever!
