I came with wind and left with waves (乘風而來，隨浪而去)

Source: I came with wind and left with waves (乘風而來，隨浪而去) by Chen Wuxiong.

I am unsure of the typeface, given the fact that there are mostly Chinese characters. The title of the book doesn't look like a font, but rather a sketch. This object is a book of poems by Chen Wuxiong. "Under his poetry, the fresh face of Taiwan's countryside has reappeared. It is powerful, lively and full of vitality in the countryside."
There is no information about this author or this book on Western websites. Therefore, the audience is primarily people who can read Chinese and they would've most likely heard about this book if they reside in Asia.
I chose this book cover because I think it is simple but effective. The colour-block effect with the white and beige plus the layout of the text in the corners, leaving an open space in the middle, produces an elegant result. I am a fan of minimalism and justified text, so the characteristics of Chinese type suit that aesthetic with its block/square style. I am more likely to pick a book up if it suits my aesthetic and it can blend in with my decor.

For my own book cover, I will keep researching more examples along these lines as I really appreciate this style and its effortlessness.
