Brilliant, surprising, and tinged with strangeness—this is how one might describe illustrator Peter Mendelsund’s contemporary Kafka covers for Schocken Books, the basis for the Olympia Le-Tan x Peter Mendelsund collection. This collection features five of his most visually-compelling covers: Kafka’s The Trial, Metamorphosis, Amerika, and Aphorisms, and Simone de Beauvoir’s A Woman Destroyed.
