Award-winning illustrator Howard McWilliam has brought a distinct style to The Week since first putting pen to paper for the publication in 2007.
The compelling collection brings together more than 350 sketches and finished paintings, as well as previously unseen alternative covers – including the one that would have been printed had Hillary Clinton beaten Donald Trump in the 2016 US presidential election.

“It may be true that you can’t judge a book by its cover… but The Week? The Week not only can be judged by its cover, it should be judged by its cover,” says Jeremy O’Grady, editor-in-chief of the UK edition.
“In fact, please… I urge you to judge it by its cover. And for the simple reason that its cover, as every Week reader I meet never fails to tell me, is unfailingly brilliant. In its wit, its concision, its facility in summarising a mood, an idea, a controversy, it is the very model of what we want The Week to be.”
