The student union bookstore has posters, of course, and today I noticed that they had a couple of the lovely Kinuko Craft designs -- the covers for A Song for the Basilisk and The Book of Atrix Wolfe, I think. I was almost tempted, and would have been more so if it hadn't been windy and raining outside. Afterwards, though, it occurred to me that I really don't decorate my home with pictures of people, apart from small family photos (and the 8x10 of Richard Basehart as Admiral Nelson on the top of the bookcase near the computer), and never have; it's landscapes and flowers all the way, and a few animals, just like the pictures in my parents' home and just like my own photos. (I was a bit boggled when I first encountered American SFF cover art and realized the images were supposed to depict actual characters from the books, too; I'm much more comfortable with the more abstract or landscape-based UK designs.)
Am I weird? Or does anyone else think there's something rather uncomfortable about the idea of a stranger's face looking at you from your bedroom or living room wall every day?
