The backdrop of hoarded rice sacks and the subtle Sri Lankan map outline effectively ties the story to the locale and its socio-economic issues. Typography choices, specifically the use of a bold serif font with a grainy texture, convey authority and texture that mirrors the book's in-depth exploration of this crisis. The matte, grain-textured paper further complements the theme, allowing readers to physically connect with the book's subject matter, while the dispersed imagery of broken grains and the rising sun completes the narrative of loss and potential resurgence.
