This is a small range of existing book covers for the novel 'What A Carve Up' by Jonathan Coe. I can't say I am a great fan of these book covers as I feel there is much more to the story than what the cover depicts. Shirley Eaten who you can see in two of the covers was an actor from the film in the 1960's. In an interview with Jonathan Coe he says "Shirley became my novel's shorthand for female desirability" I think he is trying to say that this would entice readers by displaying this attractive woman on the cover of the novel.
