Similar Covers: Back of Head, Short Hair (or Shaved Head)

Here’s another set of lookalike covers that I’ve been collecting for quite a while, all of which feature the back of a man’s head:




As a bonus, here are a DVD cover and two movie posters* that use similar images:


I can’t say that any of these covers grab me. What about you? Do you know of any others to add to my collection?

*I got the two movie posters from a YouTube video featuring lookalike movie posters.

  3. I can't choose based on covers but I loved SOMEONE TO RUN WITH. David Grossman is amazing!

  4. So interesting that covers with both men and women so often omit the faces - perhaps so more people can identify with them? Of course, a guy would need to have lost his hair for identification with all of these...

  5. Someone to Run With actually has a girl on the cover. It's just a girl with shaved head. Which, unlike most of generic covers above, actually fits the book perfectly.

    The shaved heads aren't doing anything for me.
