Ever had that can't-put-it-down feeling? So have the skiers, sledders, and snowshoers in this scene: all of them mid-run, mid-ride, and mid-chapter.
The snowshoer has a book open in one hand and is navigating pine trees with the other. Nearby, a skier carves down the slope with a paperback. A sledder hurtles past, deep in chapter four. Even the ice fisherman is reading.
Greg Clarke's cover for The New Yorker's special Winter Fiction Double Issue (December 20 & 27, 2004) is a love letter to anyone who has ever found it genuinely difficult to put a book down, regardless of what else might be happening around them. A returning fan favorite, previously available as a 500-piece puzzle, Winter Page-Turners Mini brings the same beloved image back in a quick, satisfying 100-piece format. Clarke's clean, graphic illustration style (bold shapes, a muted winter palette, and dry wit in every detail) makes it a puzzle worth lingering over.
A perfect gift for book lovers, New Yorker fans, and anyone whose reading stack has ever felt more urgent than going outside.
Finished puzzle size measures 7 x 9 inches and is recommended for ages 10 and up. Made in the USA and features a linen-style finish to reduce glare.
The covers of The New Yorker have entertained and enlightened the magazine's readers for nearly a century. With unmatched visual sophistication and wit, they let no subject escape their scrutiny. A roster of extraordinary artists continues to create indelible images that are infinitely varied in style and tone, whether whimsical, provocative, serene, or laugh-out-loud funny.
