The cover of the book "Crohnic" by Jason Purcell, with stacked text above reading, "Happy book birthday!", along with the book title and author's name. Below, footer text lists the publisher, Arsenal Pulp Press, and their website, arsenal pulp dot com.

On the book cover is a cyanotype of Edmonton’s River Valley, with grass visible in the foreground and a thick cluster of trees in the back. The trees appear to dissolve into a textured blue mass in the centre, over which the book title, “Crohnic,” appears. At the top is the word “Poems” and the author’s name, “Jason Purcell.” The cover is monochromatic, in varying royal blue hues.

New! #Crohnic by Jason Purcell (@jasonvpurcell.bsky.social) is a poetic meditation on what it means to live a medicated life, looking toward sites of nature where life and death exist side by side.
