This is a book collecting paintings and drawings by this Finnish artist, a sort of follow-up to the screenprinted booklet "Cold Sweat" that Le Dernier Cri in Marseille published back in 2013. Overlap with that one is zero, but it's the same kind of material: colorful, psychedelic pictures of Finns, Finnish tropes, Finnish nature going bezerk. "You would not like to let them into your house, but they are a pleasure to look at" - from the afterword by Anna Haifisch, which is printed in Swedish, Finnish and English. Very little text otherwise and it has like one single page of actual comics.
