The lafferty library: r.a. lafferty

2024-2014

An ongoing series of collected short fiction by 20th century speculative author R.A. Lafferty. 

The Lafferty Library is a projected 12-volume set of short fiction by the mid-century American science fiction author R.A. Lafferty. The books are being published by Centipede Press. McMurray developed a structure for the cover designs that allows for both creativity per volume and cohesiveness for the whole set. The typography is very minimal, and sits on a mostly-solid color field, allowing an evocative central collage to visually set the stage for the volume contents.

Scope: book cover design
