La liste d'Orwell #[nn]

The cover of this 2022 release from 21g sets an immediately charged tone: a lean, thoughtful man — rendered in Carlos Hernandez's expressive linework — stands before a Union Jack backdrop bisected by a Soviet hammer-and-sickle, with shadowy ideological symbols pressing in from both sides. It's a quietly arresting composition that frames its subject at the crossroads of competing political worlds. Hernandez brings a confident graphic economy to this tale of Cold War-era moral complexity.
