I’m trying something new with my ‘Covers of the Week’ posts. I’ll be featuring several of the old paperbacks that sit on my actual bookshelves. Although I’ve featured the (completely awesome) cover of this book before, today I’m showing off the two different editions I have of Gordon Merrick’s classic, The Lord Won’t Mind. On the left is the mid 90’s reprint from Alyson Books (my ‘reading’ copy) and on the right is the early 70’s Avon paperback. Avon released nearly all of Merrick’s books in paperback around this time and they all have beautifully illustrated covers, most of which I’m lucky enough to own and will be featuring in the coming weeks.
