Not exactly. Ismat Chughtai’s Ek Qatra Khoon had a dark back ground and the title written in Red. But its the name of the writer and theme of the novel that attracted me to buy the book.
Recently I started reading Abdal Bela’s novels. Though he was not familiar to me, but the names of his novels ‘Mayo Mahiwal’, "Sain Bago Shah’, ’ Delhi ki Arjumand Bano’ were interesting to me. I picked the books and randomly read paragraphs from the books. That was enough for me to buy those books because the topic was my favourite ‘Pre-partition India and interaction between people from different religions’. So I bought all the books and enjoy reading all.
Mustansar Hussain TaraR is one of my favorite writers and I buy his novels without investigating much.
nah..not cover..but by wht others have to say abt it..and the lil summary(not really summary..kuch aur kehte hain but i dotn rem wht) of it written at the back of the book
Yes there are few with decent cover, ( not saying the one with model pics aren't decent)
But as you said aik qatra khoon has a dark background, so I guess cover has to do something with topic,right?

Per Maine kuch novel parhe hain jinka cover bilkul samjh nahi ata per interesting novel hotay hain, aur kuch ache cover wale novel bhi ajeeb o ghareeb hotay hain.
