The cover is dominated by a black, space-like field. At the very top, the title “SPIN” appears in four tall, condensed, sans-serif capital letters that stretch downward. Each letter is white with a soft gray gradient and a strong inner glow, creating a luminous, backlit effect against the dark background. The letters are evenly spaced and centered, with the tops close to the upper edge. Below the title, the central image is a large spiral formation set in a star-speckled sky. The spiral has a bright, green-teal core and curls outward in a smooth whirlpool shape. Around it, countless tiny white points and short streaks suggest stars and motion, densest near the spiral and thinning into the surrounding black. The spiral’s outer bands blend from green into darker grays and blacks, giving it depth while remaining clearly the focal element. Across the lower portion, a blocky cityscape silhouette runs edge to edge. Buildings are rendered in flat purples and violets with simplified rectangular forms and scattered light window shapes, like a nighttime skyline seen in shadow. Over the skyline, the author’s name “ROBERT CHARLES WILSON” is printed in narrow, white, all-capital letters, spaced across the width near the bottom. The overall palette contrasts cold black space and glowing white type with the green spiral and purple urban strip.
