…and the graves of three children killed in a horse and cart accident. Two Chinese people are also interred here. Bourke was once home to 2000 camels, used for transporting goods to and from the railhead which ended in Bourke at the time. 2/2

Your name is given a decent amount of room as well – very important!
(Disclosure – I designed a handful of book covers before I retired.)

The title typography is excellent. ‘Death’ in black in upper case and it grabs attention, ‘Desirable’ in red and in a more caressing cursive face – they reinforce the meaning visually. Good illustration as well. I think they’ve done a good job.

Building a ‘you really don’t want to go there’ response is essential. Mind you, the way in which arms companies operate has questions to be asked, but this is a separate problem. We need to be armed and prepared unfortunately.

I’m always waiting for the ‘warmonger’ jibe when I point out that the state structures of Russia are specifically designed to subvert, damage and divide, both socially and physically. This is as much internal to Russia as external. He wants his empire.

地震から生じるストレスと恐怖は想像できません。私は数年前にイギリスで1つ感じましたが、日本の地震に比べれば短く、非常に穏やかでした。東京の地震シミュレーターで誰か（クリス・ブロード）のビデオを見たことがありますが、それは恐ろしく見えました。私の思いはすべての日本人と共にあります。

ロジャー・ディーンの最初の本が出版されたとき、私は興奮して「Views」を買いに行ったのを覚えています。それは私にエアブラシを買うように促し、私は彼のよりシンプルな作品のいくつかを再現し、学校でそれらを販売しました。大学に着いたとき、私はガールフレンドの胸に画像をエアブラシで描き、彼女はそれらを表示するためにローカットのTシャツを着ていました。ある画像はスターウォーズのXウイング戦闘機でした！
