Most of the featured covers are ones that did make it all the way to the published edition. Still, I really liked getting to see some of the rough sketches for those, as well as the ones that didn't make it in. It's neat to get a little peak into the decisions that go on behind the scenes. Wish there'd been more could've-beens though, and also wish there'd been a little more detail around some of the ones that got passed over. Often there was just a sentence explanation for why something was passed on. ( ) From the front flap: {New Yorker covers} attempt, every single week, to capture the aspects of our culture that are just beyond conscious grasp. I enjoyed The Rejection Collection (the first in New Yorker cartoon editor Robert Mankoff’s books of rejected cartoon submissions) and was happy to see this coffee-table treatment of rejected covers by New Yorker art editor Mouly (who is btw married to artist/memoirist Art Spiegelman). And there are a couple hundred covers here, in all stages of conception and finalization, well-reproduced and mostly in full color, organized into sections on Race/Ethnicity; Sex; Religion; Politics; Celebrities; Wars/Disasters; Taboos; and accompanied by commentary from Mouly and the artists about how time sensitivities (the news cycle), cultural sensitivities, and the right combo of clarity/subtlety combine to yay or nay a cover. It's very good, my only quibble being that, contrary to the title and subtitle, it’s actually as much about controversial covers that were published as about “blown” covers, and thus feels a little short. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
