Is there a marketing reason why the translator is completely absent from any part of the front/back cover? I'm not sure I've seen a book try to hide its translated nature like this. Love the cover even more since I now know the premise!

Jemppu I keep appreciating the shifts in tone to the translated titles of this (and the related cover art). The English one adds to the 'lyricism' of the original, it feels, meanwhile the Finnish one is a much more abrupt and idiomatically mundane "Purebred cattle".
