The Smiths - Penguin book covers by Chris Thornley

“If only Morrissey would take to writing books.”

Manchester, UK artist Chris Thornley (aka “Raid71“) has created a series of book covers that each use song lyrics from the 1980s alternative rock band The Smiths and resemble the classic look and style of retro Penguin paperback books. Select prints of the book cover designs are available to purchase.
