I'm very impressed with cover designer CS Richardson, whose twist on quintessential American Dream Novel THE GREAT GATSBY's classic cover is just perfect for a post-civilization set in and around the "egg" compound where Oryx and Crake did their work. The future/present of said American Dream as depicted in MADDADDAM ("some of us will survive, and our coffee substitute is made from dandelion roots") is quite an "orgasmic future", which will indeed bear us back "ceaselessly to the past".
