Mysterious looking Russian covers...

These are some more of my choice picks from the Ukraine - some spectacularly sinister undertones to these particular covers.  

The triangles and angular shapes in the illustrated cover just above reminds me a bit of the aesthetic of German Expressionism


Whilst the more contemporary title one with the multiple faces is just quietly terrifying.

  1. Hello from Russia :)

    In fact, the second Felix Medvedev's book "After Russia" is published in 1992 i.e. after USSR.

    If you are interested, I can see the curious Soviet covers in my home library and then post the scans/photos in my Live Journal :)
