From Bookslut:
Are you happy with [the cover], and do you feel like it appropriately represents the material inside the book?
I’m very happy with it; I think it’s just about perfect. The book is a collection of clever stories about clever thieves — not murderers, not detectives, just thieves, from art forgers to burglars — so a clever image of theft is the best possible cover design.
Who wouldn’t be happy with that cover? Read more about The Penguin Book of Gaslight Crime here.
Michael Sims was a speaker at this year’s Virginia Festival of the Book (audio). Read another interview with him here.
