That Dustjacket is a Hairshirt

June 19, 2009 / Anders

To promote the forthcoming Spike Jonze movie version of the title, McSweeney’s is offering a special fur-covered edition of Maurice Sendak’s classic kids’ book Where the Wild Things Are. There’s no news if the book comes with a comb.

The hirsute hardcover will be available in October.–David E
