THERE’S A SCENE early in Joanne Proulx’s second novel, We All Love the Beautiful Girls, in which one of the protagonists, a photographer named Mia, shoots an image of her friend’s daughter, Frankie. The passage – which foreshadows the book’s themes of sexual power, personal loss, and betrayal – stuck with Penguin Random House Canada designer Jennifer Griffiths, who was assigned the task of creating a cover that would not only represent the book’s dark themes and tension, but carry through the v ision of Proulx’s editor, Penguin Canada publisher Nicole Winstanley, and PRHC art director Scott Richardson.
