Last year, we ran an excerpt from William Boyle’s novel Gravesend, one of the first titles published by Broken River Books. Boyle’s next book is a collection titled Death Don’t Have No Mercy; above is the cover, designed by Matthew Revert, which calls to mind Xerox art and collages made in a pre-digital era. Death Don’t Have No Mercy will be out later this year.
