I don't know if you can use cover images from Cloud Library (owned by nonprofit OCLC), but that's the only place I could find an image: https://images.gr-assets.com/photos/1...

Kamila | 1366 comments added without a cover, I am afraid I cannot use the source you provided. However, if you have bought it yourself, you can take a screenshot of the cover, and upload it yourself to goodreads profile: https://www.goodreads.com/photo/new Then you can send the link here and we would add the cover.

Also I added the book with the publishing date of 2024, as that's what I found online and believe to be correct, 1948 is probably just the year of the original edition, right? :)
