U.S. Cover for Yiddish Policemen Online

A small image of the cover for the U.S. edition of The Yiddish Policemen’s Union has found its way online.

Steven Barclay Agency, which books Michael Chabon’s speaking engagements, posted a thumbnail of the cover on its Web site. Asked if it had a larger version, the agency said it couldn’t provide one since it didn’t have the right to distribute it further.

The cover appears to feature Alaska Native art, fitting with the story’s plot line of a Yiddish homeland in Alaska. The cover also features a city with tall buildings.

The U.S. edition differs significantly from the UK edition, which featured a police car.
