 Mistigram: one of the first screens Cthulu started when the idea of doing a books-themed artpack came up (and also, after quite some turbulance, the very last one he finished), this adaptation of the typographical cover design to the 1999 Mariner Press edition of #JoseSaramago's #Blindness was included in last month's new literary MIST0426 artpack collection. (The artist thanks Yvonne for lending her copy so many years ago!)
