Katie | 1 comments Sorry, I don't remember much about it other than that I believe that the author used a name that was obviously a pen name or even under the name "Anon" or "Anonymous". I remember being intrigued by that fact. From what I remember it contained stories that were just really strange and surreal. It was unlike anything I had read before, like the Twilight Zone but even stranger and made less sense. Had horror elements too I believe.

I'm a designer so I'm not sure how much this will help, but cover was illustrated in 1960s geometric design that a lot of designers came back to in the early 2000s. It had one flower one the cover that had an eye. Believe one of the characters picks up flower to smell it/use it for magic. Please see attached link for reference of geometric style.

Tab (tabbrown) | 5084 comments Mirror, Mirror Twisted Tales by Silverman Mirror, Mirror: Twisted Tales seems to fit, although the cover doesn't have the graphic, flat color style you mentioned.

Jim (jimmaclachlan) The The 1st Short Story Collection by Anonymous-9 doesn't seem to have the correct cover, but I think she changed it & her stories might fit your description.
