Mrs Death Misses Death

The cover of Mrs Death Misses Death was designed to capture some of the power and raw fury of the writing, while also conveying the glimmer of hope and beauty in the pages – both the light and the dark. The cover depicts the characters Rabbit and Wolf in an endless chase of life and death, caught up amongst a thorny path of untangling grief and loss. A minimal colour palette and bold typeface were chosen to balance the intricacies of the illustration. The printed cover uses a metallic gold ink, and a special edition featuring a reverse colour scheme was also created for independent bookshops.
