After reading If On A Winter's Night A Traveler, I was really inspired by the concept of Oulipo, a French Literature Movement from the 1960's that became a form of written constraint and abstract works. Each cover displays a concept that was important to the corresponding book in a more abstracted way. I chose these three books for their variance in style, although they can all be identified as Oulipian works, they all have a different way in showing that and effect the reader in different ways.

 

The gathered and stapled sheets on the cover of If On A Winter's Night A Traveler symbolize the way the novel transitions as if someone had taken signatures from many different novels to create a new one. 

 

On Ella Minnow Pea the green bottles were used to convey the pangram "Pack My Box With Five Dozen Liquor Jugs" a phrase that is relevant in the lippographic novel.

 

And finally, on Life A User's Manual, the concept of traveling far only to find that you have not moved at all, similar to the actions of the main character in the novel, is shown with a reorganized map and cut up keys.
