The Pulp Canon: Lurid new covers for classic books
The Slate asked to a handful of designers to create lurid new book jackets for classics from The Iliad to Animal Farm. Check the results here. Yes, you got me, I can't resist to pulp book covers. As Slate says, "Classic pulp covers are glorious and garish, rich with saturated color and sexual innuendo", and isn't great? (via Drawn)

:D I like the "normal" covers most of the time, but pulp books have so funny covers!
