Demon Dog meets "Supreme genius of dust jacket design" - a conversation with Chip Kidd & James Ellroy

Chip Kidd, the “supreme genius of dust jacket design” at Knopf and Pantheon (and author of Bat-Manga!), explains his approach to creating the perfect book cover—a daunting task when the author is none other than the “supreme genius of crime fiction,” James Ellroy (LA Confidential, American Tabloid).

Be sure to pick up a copy of James Ellroy’s latest masterpiece, Blood’s A Rover. Get a sneak peek—and marvel at Chip Kidd’s handiwork here.
