I think most of them are a lot more attractive than a lot of the books I have. Most of them, maybe?

They would all make reasonably attractive book covers if they were simple 2D designs. At least as good as (and in some cases much better than) the various packaging's Nabokov's gotten over the years. I quite like The Eye, King Queen Knave, Pale Fire and Pnin. That said, in most cases, these seem like 3D mock-ups of planned 2D designs. By which I mean that the specimen box device isn't really being exploited all that well/fully.

Voted despair - Glory is underrated tho I think! I guess it is kind of vector art/Ed Hardy T-Shirt but that is an aesthetic I really like.

I should've voted. I might've given Ada a vote.
