The Covers of the Phantom of the Opera Casing the Cover

This month we are tackling retellings of the Greek Myth of Spring. Before we dive into modern tales featuring Hades and Persephone, we take a look at a classic novel that has obvious allusions to Greek myth but has in turn inspired just as many retellings itself: The Phantom of the Opera by Gaston Leroux. Join us as we study an array of covers, from bad stock art choices to covers obviously stealing ideas from the broadway musical. Keep an eye out for part 2 of our exploration of Hades and Persephone retellings.
New episodes of Casing the Cover are released on the last Tuesday of each month. New and current episodes available at
