skin-deep cover

In the last thirty years, in terms of graphic appeal, the covers of poetry books have made a quantum leap. The insides of the books are much the same as they've been for centuries...with only the poet’s text, legibly laid out, to prove its case.

    So you weren't fond of the plain white cover with a green stripe toward the bottom and the large lucida sans unicode typefont that said, "Book"?
