Paperback cover
Paperback cover

The group called Ben Fountain’s book “a wise, sharply insightful examination of war, class, and celebrity in America.” I agree. You should read it. It’s also the rare book where the paperback cover (right) is just as good as the hardback.

Actually, take a look at all of these covers. They’re fantastic.
