"They are used to working with the demands of corporate clients," says Bonomelli. This was their first book jacket and an exciting venture for them. Bonomelli found the perfect team of digital artists, based in South America and New York, whose cutting edge work had previously been devoted to advertisement campaigns. In order to achieve the arresting image for this jacket, Scribner art director Rex Bonomelli had to seek out artists who could do a convincing job of creating a realistic portrayal of the town of Chester's Mill, the setting of the novel. This is a departure from the direction of King's most recent illustrated covers. The artwork is a combination of photographs, illustration and 3-D rendering. The Story Behind the Book Cover The jacket concept for Under the Dome originated as an ambitious idea from the mind of Stephen King. But their main adversary is the Dome itself. Against them stands Big Jim Rennie, a politician who will stop at nothing-even murder-to hold the reins of power, and his son, who is keeping a horrible secret in a dark pantry.
Dale Barbara, Iraq vet and now a short-order cook, finds himself teamed with a few intrepid citizens-town newspaper owner Julia Shumway, a physician's assistant at the hospital, a select-woman, and three brave kids. No one can fathom what this barrier is, where it came from, and when-or if-it will go away.
Planes crash into it and fall from the sky in flaming wreckage, a gardener's hand is severed as "the dome" comes down on it, people running errands in the neighboring town are divided from their families, and cars explode on impact. About "Under the Dome" On an entirely normal, beautiful fall day in Chester's Mill, Maine, the town is inexplicably and suddenly sealed off from the rest of the world by an invisible force field.
