Expect Layout: It was the middle of the night, I had no peace, I wandered around the house like a guard, and my back shivered at the slightest sound. For yesterday passed over me like a dark and ominous year, and every moment of it gnawed at my being like termites. I peeked into Mohammad's room. His breaths were wheezing, and a deep mark, from a sharp band, was bruised beneath his neck. I sat by his head for a moment and looked at him, searching for a resemblance to myself! But saying, "God's curse on Satan," I left the room and went to the yard. My eyes fell on the faucet in the middle of the yard, the memory of the blow that broke it whistled in my head. I turned my gaze, but the creaking sound of the broken handle turning drew my eyes back. It turned and turned, crushing my heart and repeatedly taking my life and releasing it. Meanwhile, the storeroom door turned on its hinges, and a white dust filled the yard. The water faucet stopped turning. Suddenly, a bruised hand appeared in the thick cloud of dust, and I was mesmerized and stunned, drawn towards the storeroom. I didn't blink; it was as if my eyelids had dried out. When I reached the doorway, a fishing reel fell from the shelf above me and rolled away. It was muddy, like Mohammad's hands! Terrified of their return, my limbs locked, and my heart sank, and in that ominous silence, the door slammed shut behind me in an instant, and I was thrown back into the broken and scattered remnants of the previous night...

Design Concept

Visual Composition:

A dim, ominous yard under a moonless sky is depicted at the center of the cover. A broken faucet is visible with a faint outline of a bruised and spectral white hand emerging from a swirling cloud of dust. Broken remnants of objects, such as a shattered fishing reel, are scattered across the ground. The background features a faint silhouette of a dark storeroom door, slightly ajar, emitting a cold, eerie glow. Otherworldly shadows elongate and ripple subtly across the entire scene.

Design Typography:

The title, "بابازار در چنگ باد," is written in a distressed Persian typeface, appearing slightly cracked and fragmented, in white, to simulate the eerie and haunting tone. The author’s name, "Maryam Bohloul," is in a smaller, clean, sans-serif Persian font in the bottom-right corner, in a muted silver-gray tone.

Design Layout:

The title is placed prominently at the top-center, slightly overlapping the swirling dust from the scene. The ghostly hand is the central focal point, positioned near the center-right of the cover, while the storeroom door aligns with the left side in the background. Floating around the scene are subtle translucent streaks that lead the viewer’s eye from the faucet to the door. The author’s name anchors the bottom-right, while the dark edges of the background frame the entire design.

Rationale Behind the Design:

The visual composition conveys suspense and unease through the depiction of an eerie scene riddled with unsettling details like the ghostly hand, fractured faucet, and storeroom door. These elements draw the viewer into the disturbing atmosphere of the text and create a sense of immediate dread. The typography enhances the horrific tone with its fragmented appearance, while the placement ensures readability and contrast. The use of a soft-touch matte laminate creates a subtle tactile feedback tied to the eerie mood, while the spot gloss UV highlights specific areas, such as the ghostly hand and title, to bring focus to the most haunting elements, amplifying the terror visually and physically.
