Not only the cover, but the physical jacket. There are two jackets, one of a rough-ish paper and another of clear plastic. The clear plastic has the title and author so when you take it away it just has the giant text.

Have this one on my shelf right now. I also like the newer editions that have come out with pictures of houses at night time. Also really comfy for me.

on a scale of 1-10 how mad would you say you are right now :^)

I just finished reading it and enjoyed the inner monolog the youth had. Other than that I could care less with the story.

Damn that’s nice

The end of that book I'm convinced is satire.

How is the translation of this one anyway?

I've got one of the newer and one of the older. I hate to be a superficial faggot, but I'd prefer all to have all his books in the same styled editions. I can't choose between the two style, though. They're both comfy as fuck. Todd Hido does the photographs for the newer editions, btw. Very good stuff.

Seems like some idiot just added a few pictures and is selling it as an ebook to make a quick buck. The description is taken from Wikipedia and the asshole didn't even bother to remove the citation markers. Also,
>How is this book unique?
>6. One of the best books to read
Presumably he needed to add that because his normal way of interacting with books is ripping out the pages and huffing the glue in the spine.

Absolutely. The book would not have become such a meme if it didn't have some major attraction - besides its edgyness.

That's a shit cover.

I think it's a very original approach to the cover

I don't think it's a particularly edgy cover.
