- 2011 Johanna Sinisalo, Enkelten verta, Teos, →ISBN (tr. by Lola Rogers 2014) page 254:
- Mutta kuka pystyy luotaamaan keski-ikäisen naisen logiikkaa. Jos hän jollain oudolla tavalla halusikin vetää vielä viimeisen arvan, laittaa minut kirjaimellisesti sohaisemaan pimeään, aikeenaan hankkia uusi Eero tai Eerika, tasan samasta geenivalikoimasta rakennettu kuin menetetty oli?
- But who can fathom a middle-aged woman's logic? Maybe for some strange reason she wanted to throw the dice one last time, to let me have another stab at it, literally, to try to create another Eero or Erika built from the exact same collection of genes as the son she had lost.
