The cover of the book seems to represent a graveyard of items left behind during migration. I notice backpacks, hats, articles of clothing, and other items that are indescernible. The title and the cover go hand in hand to tell a narrative of the graveyard; things left behind to die. It almost makes one think of the Sonora Desert as a place where one can lose anything and everything, hence the huge pile of rubbish and items left behind.
