Brazilian edition of Jäniksen vuosi (1975, English: The Year of the Hare) by Finnish novelist Arto Paasilinna, translated by Lilia Loman and Pasi Loman and published by Bertrand Brasil.
The illustration style matches the organic qualities of Tenez, a didone display typeface from Plau. The quirky uppercase ‘R’ has enough personality to grab the reader’s attention, but doesn’t create an unnecessary distraction. The cool geometric style of GT Walsheim provides a nice contrast to both other elements, creating an unusual type match.
