Corpus Libris is a lot of fun for book design nerds. Book jacket designers don't often want to use full faces on novels and short storiesā€”you don't want to interfere with the reader's idea of what the characters look likeā€”but they need identifiable and attractive cover images, so body parts often figure frequently. I think a lot of these pictures are interesting visual metaphors for what reading is like: You're putting yourself into someone else's body.
