I haven't seen Brokeback Mountain yet but it seems even school administrators are "jumping on the bandwagon", excuse the pun. I was wondering why one of my students was upset about some required reading for English class. That was before I saw the book:



I was so amused by it I searched around for alternative covers, but with little success:



This Cowboy looks like more of a stud, but his hand gesture suggests he is preparing to recite a monologue on the apparent emotional dangers of being a horse wrangler.

I know I shouldn't judge a book by it's cover, it's probably a darn good read.

Brokeback Mountain was such an excellent movie. I recommend it!

Haa! Those book covers are hilarious (emotional dangers indeed). They remind me a bit of covers various terrible Afrikaans set books we had to lees. Ack! I wonder what the deal with the blonde woman is--she appears on both covers with hair in various stages of being feathered.
