First Draft of New French Cover for Lovers and Strangers Revisited

Draft cover for Three Other Malaysia, a collection of short stories set in Malaysia.Here's a first draft look at the new cover of Trois autres Malaisie (Three Other Malaysia), the French translation of Lovers and Strangers Revisited. This is book two of a new series of short stories set in Southeast Asia by Éditions GOPE.  The first book was Trois autres Thaïlande by Etienne Rosse.  For the book, I went through all of the stories again, revising them before passing them to the French translator Jerome Bouchaud, author of the guidebook on Malaysia Malaisie - Modernité et Traditions en Asie du Sud-Est.   Here's the full cover for Lovers and Strangers Revisited  I was glad they removed that photo, which took away from the cover more than it added anything to it!  Looking forward to seeing the book in French. Already got two requests for it in Kuching, one by a French woman who loved LSR and another by a reporter who reviewed the Silverfish version of LSR in the Borneo Post nearly four years ago and is now studying French!
