A tale of two covers

Interesting. The French edition of A Gentle Axe, which goes by the title L'Ame Detournee, seems to be available in two different covers:





Presumably one's aimed at male and the other at female readers.

I wonder if even more alternative cover designs will start to appear as the publication date (1.9.09) approaches?

That's William Thackeray on the first one, isn't it? That could confuse people when they find Dostoevsky characters inside! Or maybe they don't have Thackeray in France.
