There is just something very satisfying about writing on the edges of a book and being able to play with the shapes and the images you can create when bending the pages in different ways. This stack of perfect paper is written on in that satisfying way, which is what makes this a great cover. Unfortunately, the late David Foster Wallace did not finish this book before it was published, but I am sure he would have approved of this cover. If I saw this on the shelf at the book store, I would immediately be drawn more to this. It is definitely worth picking up a book and reading the description if you like a cover. It fits the material about an evil group of IRS agents, because I typically think of the IRS as being a group of money-hungry red-tape loving auditors during tax season.
