Here's proof, as if it were needed, that sometimes the very simplest solutions are the best. A lovely, lovely set of Faber Poetry covers, designed by Pentagram. Nice use of Perpetua, as well.
(With thanks to Anne for pointing me in the right direction.)

The serif of the letter L in land links beautifully with the a, doesn't it? And not specially kerned, neither.

Hi David
Colourwise they're both fantastic and subtly clever in the way they use colour to represent content. The typeface is gorgeous. But the leading of The Holy Land cover bugs me - it looks like it's set to "auto".
