About the Work

Book jacket for Mark McGurl's Everything and Less: The Novel in the Age of Amazon.

Since it was first launched in 1994, Amazon has changed the world of literature. The “Everything Store” has not just transformed how we buy books; it has affected what we buy, and even what we read. In Everything and Less, acclaimed critic Mark McGurl explores this new world where writing is no longer categorized as high or lowbrow, literature or popular fiction.

The entire jacket is book spines, playing the title through various visual tropes and genres.
Art direction by No Ideas (Devin Washburn and Philip DiBello).
