1. renewing medieval tradition of "drolleries"
2. because they can
3. because the publisher's specific sense of humor

It's an edit someone on /lit/ made: GR isn't in the public domain so Wordsworth can't afford to publish it.

>>7895814
change "Dracula" to "Symphony of the night" and we're all good

>blade end of axe facing forward
>not butt end
baka to be honest with those assembled here

>>7896600
checking your double dubs fampai, but he kills the pawnbroker with the blade end and the sister with the butt end

I'm in the hospital right now recovering from a surgery, and these covers are making me laugh hard as fuck. How does anyone think these covers are a good idea?

for real the Master & Margarita cover is good and not unfitting at all donno why it always catches flak here, have you not read it?

the book is like an Orthodox Christian Spongebob episode

>>7896899
Just finished Master and Margarita while in the hospital. 10/10

>>7896899
it's like a fucked up fever dream with combined motifs from alice and wonderland and grand theft auto

My god, you're right
Mostly Behemoth and Fagott's misadventures though, the Pilate/Master sections are pretty damn emotional much of the time
