Original Book Cover For
Visual Composition:

A striking image of a house of cards set ablaze, with flames capturing the attention against a dark, starry background. Snow gently falls, adding a contrasting element of Christmas. In the distance, faint hints of twinkling holiday lights add a touch of warmth.

Design Typography:

A serif font with a touch of enchantment like Cormorant for the title, giving it a mystical feel. The author's name in a clean, elegant sans-serif font like Open Sans for contrast.

Design Layout:

The title "A Game of Poker" is positioned at the top center with a prominent size. Below the blazing cards, the author's name, Gabriel Araujo, curves at the bottom, highlighting the burning illusion.

Rationale Behind the Design:

The visual composition seeks to merge elements of fantasy with the recognizable symbols of poker—a house of cards—while the fire represents chaos, and the snow introduces a magical, serene counterpoint with a seasonal touch. This adds layers to the story's probable magical realism genre. The use of font styles complements these themes; a serif font for the title brings an element of storytelling and charm, while the sans-serif font for the author’s name keeps it modern and clean. Selecting smooth matte paper with a slight sheen is intentional, providing a tactile experience that resonates with the visual narrative, while ensuring the book cover stands out on any shelf.
