With Double Blade
Cover Designer: Jean Gill
Comments about cover design
I found the old scythe in an outbuilding when we bought our house in France and, as a photographer, I saw it straight away as a photo opportunity, suggesting Death the Reaper and dark themes, which seemed to fit the range of poems in this collection. This cover is one photo, shot in an old farm’s entrance, backlit on a sunny day to create the silhouette.
