Jacqui came up with this: The Australian cover for Tied to the Tracks. It is nothing like the American cover, as you can see. In addition to the fact that it’s coming out under the Sara Donati name downundah, the whole feel is different. You might not see a connection to the story straight off.
For what it’s worth, I see a connection and more than that: I love the image. I was hoping they’d fix the wobbly type, but the image? I am delighted.
You've stumbled across my official website and landed on the front page of my weblog.My name is Rosina Lippi. I'm a former academic and tenured university professor, writing full time since 2000. Under the pen name Sara Donati I am the author of the Wilderness series, six historical novels that follow the fortunes of a group of families living in upstate New York from about 1792-1825. A new series based on later generations of the same families was launched September 1, 2015 with The Gilded Hour. The next volume in the new series, Where the Light Enters, was released in 2019.
Please see the pinned post for an overview of what you'll find on this weblog, and what has been moved to the wiki (including the FAQ page).
Hey Sara it looks great! They’ve done a good job. When’s it available down here?
I like it a lot! Will definitely be looking out for itin the stores when it comes out.
Too cute! What’s the strategy behind releasing it under Sara Donati downundah?
Sara, that’s great! Now I know what I’m looking for when I comb the bookstores. The light and the beach feel is very appropriate for down here, too. When is it released here?
great cover! I’ll have to order it from amazon australia, but I like the US release as well….eeinneee meeineee minneeee mo :)
Great connection to the story for me. The lettering wonkiness isn’t so bad. Kind of growing on me.
According to the Random House Australia site, its due for release on the 1st of Aug. Not sure if I will give in and order from the US before then!
Is that suppose to be NJ shore? I am not seeing the connection.
The seaside setting threw me at first, but then the picture taking, the preservation of memories, the hidden face, it reminded me of the story in those ways.
