Cat's Cradle

Written By: Kurt Vonnegut

BOOK COVER PROTOTYPES


Inspiration: Ice being an integral object of the story I decided to place an image of an iceberg against a blue background to reinforce the concept of the design.

Inspiration: I chose this image because of the heavy leaden texture of the thread criss-crossing in this cat's cradle game, serving as a strong metaphor of the layers of lies interlacing and reinforcing itself throughout the story.

Inspiration: Carrying out the blue motif of the Cat's Cradle design, I relied on two-toned blues and sharp contrast of the yellow to appeal to the readers' eyes.

Inspiration: The iceberg makes a second appearance in this design with a little addition of the palm trees to hypothetically perceive of a world made completely out of ice.
