Flickr Friday: Amos Tutuola Paperback Book Cover

Seems like I’ve had this copy of Amos Tutuola’s novelette The Palm-Wine Drinkard forever without ever actually having read it. The striking black and orange cover design by Roy Kuhlman might be the reason why I’m still holding on. A Pinterest search on Kuhlman reveals many of the other bright, jazzy designs he did for Grove Press in the ’50s.
