Juri Nemmelin, my editor at the Finnish publisher Banaani Pokkari, just sent me this cover for my approval of their upcoming edition of "The Ice Harvest." Fucking lovely, innit?
In a weird twist of fate, I spent a few days in Helsinki about a year ago, and a guy there took me to one of their many bookstores. Four stories! The Finns love their books, and they love their noir/crime.... Great cover.
Sweet
ReplyDeletePhillips work is so aineellinen!
ReplyDeleteI have a feeling the Finns know snow.
ReplyDeleteNicely done. THE ICE HARVEST might be just the thing to pass those long Finnish winter nights.
ReplyDeletePretty awesome, has that old pulp flavor.
ReplyDeleteyeah, they're doing a great job over there...

ReplyDeleteThat's great. Finns love umlauts too don't they?
