Art by Hannes Bok, 1948. I don't know the novel. Interesting cover, though that interest is short-lived. Sensational, a few spatial conundrums (the monster in the story is a shape-shifter, see John Carpenter's film The Thing, 1982)... but the diversion is transitory, lacking emotional depth and meaning. One wonders if Bok had Picasso in mind.
