To the left is the cover of ‘Seek You: A Journey Through American Loneliness,' which is the side of an apartment building with dark windows and a few windows lit up with people inside. Above the apartment building is a vintage looking sign of the title of the book.

As we are released from our homes and can start to have dinner with our friends again, it doesn’t mean that the problem of American loneliness is gone or has even really changed.

Cover Photo: A collage by Johnny Damm made from a vintage comic book. The collage is of a white man in a purple suit floating in the air above a field of green. He appears to be jumping backwards, facing up toward the sky with lines coming from his body representing movement.

Cover Photo: There are two comic panels. The one on left is the back of cartoon version of Andrew Lorenzi's head looking up at crows flying overhead. It is drawn in surreal colors so the crows are blue and the sky is light pink. The second frame is from above, looking down at Lorenzi and his car in between the crows feathers. The ground below Andrew is lavender and his looks like his frowning. Written across the two frames is "AAAAAAAAAAA" in uneven letters to signify the crows' calls.
