Last week I was asked to argue 'against' the importance of book covers for an article in The Cambridge Student. This seemed to be a difficult task at first, as I actually quite enjoy purchasing books with pretty covers, and collect series that are especially beautiful (e.g. Penguin Clothbound Classics) - yet I found that there were some convincing points on both sides.
Here is the full article, with my 'against' unfairly outnumbered by 'fors'.
And here is an article about the controversial Roald Dahl book cover that started this whole debate.
