With a new theatrical version of this book coming out recently, a lot of television and internet sources have been talking and writing about the book and flashing this cover. I thought this version (some other versions use the same artwork, but I was unable to identify the type), which must at least be newer than 1996, used a pretty unique typeface. It turns out it’s Minimal, designed by Keystrokes AKA Douglas Olena for Monotype.

The lowercase glyphs are just alternate version of uppercase letters, and this cover only uses the alternate ‘a’. The designer also created a custom ligature for joining the ‘C’ to the ‘O’ in the author’s name.
