Gosh they are gorgeous! I want them!!!

I really like this russian edition of classic books. Letting famous artists do the covers in YA style was such a simple but clever decision. According to the recent study the number of teenage readers increased, possibly thanks to these covers. I own traditional classics with blank covers but if I ever see one of these in the wild, it’ll probably make me go feral.

Here are some of my favs:

Dracula (art by Renibet)

2.Jane Eyre (art by Ulunii)

3. Little women (art by чаки чаки)

4. The Idiot (the hedgehog-omg-) (art by Xinshi)

5. Pride and Prejudice (art by Cactusute)

6. War and Peace (art by Xinshi)

7. Wuthering Heights (art by Renibet)

8. The Great Gatsby (art by NIKEL)

9. Frankenstein (art by Iren Horrors)

10. Crime and Punishment (art by REDwood)

11. Anna Karenina (art by Ulunii)

12. The Cherry Orchard (art by lewisite)

13. The Master and Margarita (art by Renibet)

HELLO everyone! As I take a break from illustrating The Hobbit, I'm planning to work on one of the other projects I've been daydreaming about for a long time-- and in this difficult economy, amidst Adventures at my day job, I have decided to monetize my own indecision! If you'd like to help me choose the poem, you can join my Patreon and vote at this link! ;3 The poll will close on Februrary 28th!

#I've been daydreaming about both projects for like a year now but! need a bit of a push XD #the hobbit comic #retelling the hobbit #the lady of shallot #arthuriana #the stolen child #art #comics #artists on tumblr #the hobbit #artblr #no ai #classic literature #classic lit #poetry #lotr

Does a quantum particle wish it could stay constant under a microscope? I don’t like who I am when I’m being observed. Does the particle, like me, resent its lack of choice?
