Katelijne Boon kiest voor fragment uit 'Wat we zien als we lezen' van Peter Mendelsund.
The Interview: Peter Mendelsund began his career as a concert pianist, and reinvented himself as a graphic designer, now creative director, almost by accident. He came to book design—first as a reader, then as an independent bookstore employee, and ultimately, as a book cover designer, which he practiced full time at PenguinRandom House. He is presently the Creative Director of The Atlantic, and in his spare time, he writes novels, the second of which, The Delivery, is currently out on hardcover from FSG. For The Interview in this episode, J.C. Gabel talks with Mendelsund about his last nonfiction book, The Look of the Book: Jackets, Covers & Art at the Edges of Literature, published by Ten Speed Press, which he co-authored with literary scholar David Alworth. What began as a Harvard lecture has become a gorgeous coffee table book examining the artwork of book cover design through the modern age; it is an overview of trends, insights, and back stories, many told through other voices from the literary and design worlds. It is also an invaluable tool for anyone interested in book jacket design and its rich and colorful history. The Reading: Peter Mendelsund reads from his latest novel, The Delivery (FSG) Music by Laurie Spiegel

每次踏入书店,面对满架子的书籍,是什么吸引我们将一本书从书架上拿下来?翻开书页,是什么在白纸铅字之外丰富着我们的阅读体验?在进入一本书的内容之前,我们先接触到的是书的设计:封面、纸张、排版……这些都是书籍设计师试图与读者“对话”的“语言”。不仅在视觉和触觉上“捕获”注意力,好的设计也会让读者对书的内容产生兴趣,甚至可以引发想象和思考。 成为书籍设计师之前首先得成为读者——当设计师在阅读时,他们在看见了什么?他们如何用视觉的方式传达书籍内容?说到从内容到视觉之间的转化,文学书的设计是不是最难的?如何在文学书的封面上“叙事”?在书籍设计这件事上,作者、出版方和设计师之间有着怎样的合作与拉锯? 本期节目由跳岛FM与单向街书店文学奖共同呈现。本届单向街书店文学奖特别新增“书籍设计奖”,以此为契机,我们邀请到了平面设计师、书籍设计师,也是跳岛FM的视觉设计孙晓曦,以及设计师、出版人周安迪,和大家聊聊书籍设计师的“字外功”和“叙事法”。 【时间轴】 05:03 读屏时代,书籍设计更应该重视封面的视觉冲击力吗? 09:01 除了封面设计,书籍设计还包括什么? 18:57 设计师的“字外功”:好设计师首先得是好的读者 28:37 “没有设计就是最好的设计”是对设计师的一种打压 32:35 为什么说好的设计师敢于推翻自己方案? 37:28 文学书的封面如何“叙事”? 40:32 科班出身vs半路出家:书籍设计师的养成之路 45:17 市场导向、电脑软件“虚化”下的书籍设计如何回归 【主持】 祝羽捷, 写作者,中英文化社交媒体大使,曾任《时尚芭莎》专题总监。著有《世界从不寂静》《人到了美术馆会好看起来》等作品,翻译作品《哗众取宠》《文艺复兴人》。 【嘉宾】 孙晓曦,平面设计师,书籍设计师,Pay2Play联合创始人。 周安迪,设计师,出版人,梯工作室(Telos Books)和Text&Image梯书店负责人。 【节目中提到的书】 《岸萤》陈传兴 著 《红霞(HX)》 曹斐 著 《及格家宣言》 [美]雷·贝内特 著 《当我们阅读时,我们看到了什么》 [美]彼得·门德尔桑德 著 《洛丽塔》 [美]纳博科夫 著 《奇普·基德的设计世界》 [美]奇普·基德 著 《薄薄的故乡》 王小帅 著 Cover by Peter Mendelsund 【主理人】猫弟 【统筹&监制】Bake 【视觉设计】孙晓曦 甘信宇 【后期制作】AURA.pote 【音乐】Café’Alpha(Main Theme) - Choro Club 【文字整理】drunkflea 阿索 【收听方式】 你可以在小宇宙、网易云音乐、喜马拉雅、蜻蜓FM、荔枝FM、轻芒小程序,以及Apple Podcasts、Castro、Pocket Casts等泛用型播客客户端上找到我们,订阅收听「跳岛FM」。 【联系我们】 微信公众号:跳岛FM 微博:跳岛FM 邮箱:tiaodaoFM@citicpub.com

Liliana Russo in TuttoLibri presenta… Che cosa vediamo quando leggiamo, di Peter Mendelsund
What do we "see" in our minds when we read a book? How can you capture the essence of a novel in an image? Perhaps no one has given these questions more thought than Peter Mendelsund, who has designed some of the most iconic books covers of our time. Peter is the Creative Director of The Atlantic, was formerly the Associate Art Director at Alfred A. Knopf, and author of What We See When We Read, Cover, and newly published novel, Same Same. Peter talks about about the intersection of perception, authorship and reading, and mass media and cover art.
On this episode of Take a Leaf, join Peter Mendelsund, one of the most prolific book cover designers at work today, and I in discussing the relationship between books and their readers. We chat about book covers, translation, dead authors, and Peter’s first novel, Same Same. Join us for a discussion of repetitions, visual meaning, and where, exactly, you, too, can find a same same shop.
In this episode, authors Susan Choi and Peter Mendelsund each talk about a classic that influenced their own work. This episode is sponsored by Libro.fm and TBR. You can subscribe to Recommended in Apple Podcasts, Google Play, or in your podcast player of choice. The show can also be found on Stitcher here. A transcript of this episode is available here. Books Discussed: Trust Exercise by Susan Choi The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie by Muriel Spark Moby Dick by Herman Melville Same Same by Peter Mendelsund The Magic Mountain by Thomas Mann
Peter Mendelsund is a graphic designer, writer, musician. Until recently he was the associate art director at Alfred A. Knopf where he designed book covers for everyone from James Joyce to Franz Kafka, Stieg Larsson and Simone De Beauvoir. In 2014, he published What We See When We Read and Cover and will publish his first novel, Same Same next year. In this conversation, Peter and I talk about his relationship to graphic design, working across mediums and disciplines, and the differences between writing fiction and nonfiction. Links from this episode can be found at scratchingthesurface.fm.
Debbie talks to Peter Mendelsund about what makes a great book cover, rebranding the classics, and about his fears of the iPad and Kindle.
