It is that time of the year to round up the best cover designs from India in 2020. Here are some delicious, lip smacking covers that make you go weak on your knees. Bhavi Mehta seems to be my favourite artist this year. You can find more of her work here<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Publisher : Westland <\/p>\n This cover will catch anybody\u2019s eye at a bookstore. The title says \u2018Facebook\u2019 and the doodled woman on the cover suggests mystery. Who is she? Did she invent Facebook? What kind of women inhabit these stories? True to the cover, the stories remain fantastic too.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Publisher : Pan Macmillan India <\/p>\n The cover calls for an essay dedicated to it. It really is one of the best book covers from India in 2020. At first glance, there\u2019s a woman with wings and a flying moth signifying the importance of wings in the novel. There\u2019s Faiz\u2019s poem written on the cover. And if you could see the spine, there\u2019s a Hindu motif. The cover is an amalgamation of religions, two countries with similar cultures, traditions, and modernity, and art, all in one.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Publisher : Hachette India <\/p>\n The abstractness and the pleasing colour palette makes the reader understand how families are made of smaller units of members and how they pitch in together to keep the family afloat. This novel could not have gotten a nicer cover\u2014it is perfect.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Publisher : Harper Collins India <\/p>\n The hairy background and the large white letters that spell out the title are eye catching. I love the animal motifs, and I wonder why is the coconut tree upside down, making me expect something surreal in this socio-political novel.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Publisher : Penguin India <\/p>\n I love the details on the cover. Skulls, camera, skeletal legs, chained men\u2014What could this book be about?<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Publisher : Westland <\/p>\n I love the simple cover of Estuary for the striking tones of blues and for the reflections of the father and son in the water. <\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Publisher : Westland <\/p>\n Jasraj\u2019s stories are pleasing, discomfiting and little strange and the cover effectively captures those sentiments with its surreal figures and pleasing colour palette. <\/i><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Publisher : Harper Collins India <\/p>\n Balli Kaur Jaswal\u2019s books have been republished in 2020 with matching covers. Sugarbread shows me a shared meal and I am curious wwhat how food is woven into the story. Inheritance shows me a family, possibly fighting for an inheritance. The lovely design and striking colours tell me these books promise fun, entertainment and a good story.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Publisher : Westland <\/p>\n It can\u2019t get better than a black and white cover with vultures for a graveyard book about dead people. I also love the detail in the ‘O’ in the author\u2019s name. <\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Publisher : Juggernaut <\/p>\n The black and green remind me of a dimly lit forest hiding secrets and that\u2019s exactly what this literary thriller is\u2014as you go deeper, you are engulfed by the twists in the mystery of a missing girl, hairpin, and a golden statue.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n10 BEST book covers from India in 2020 to feast your eyes on. <\/a><\/span>Click To Tweet<\/a><\/span>\n <\/p>\n If you liked this post on Delicious Book Covers from India in 2020, Pin it<\/strong> <\/p>\n 10 Beautiful Book Blogs to Follow<\/a><\/span> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It is that time of the year to round up the best cover designs from India in 2020.
