It's just a simple screw up from the IT bods at Penguin Canada. Amazon.com has the legit cover ~

Hoping for embossing...

Still looks wrong

They've deffo been photoshopping the original cover was miles better

I'm going to get the hard cover anyway. This pic has been used just a bit too much since 2007...

- marred.

Dead....lifeless ...... deceased ! I'm with Playcat2000, this is an awful picture to place on the cover. Go back to the orginal that is selling quite well in the UK .

I think it's the blue cover. Even if it is the same picture, the blue gives the appearance of a warmer smile. I bought my copy from a UK eBay seller. Amazon UK had too many issues with my debit card. After 6 tries I said Fugheddaboudit and hit ebay. No troubles.

No it's not the blue cover. The North American pic has been stretched and photoshopped. When you stretch a pic of a face the expression gets distorted. I will be steering clear of that issue.

Did you not see it in the side by side comparison? Blue has nothing to do with it.

To repeat, that image is not the cover for the North American edition. Penguin Canada screwed up and posted a stretched version. The actual cover of the North American issue is on Amazon now (and on this thread, above) and looks just fine. No stretch, no blue, just sepia.

So is the hardcover version the one where he’s in the water? Or no?
