Welcome to Litsy!

This was a good read! It told the life story of one of Finland's most famous writers. She specialiced in historical fiction and historical non-fiction. She wrote a lot about especially women's and children's history in a time when no one was interested in it. Her father also founded one of Finland's biggest publishing houses so in many ways this was also a book about the history of literature in Finland.

Got Covid again. Luckily the symptoms are easier this time. So started reading a new book to pass the time. This book is a memoir of one of Finland's most succesful female writers. Starts with description of wartime family life. Feels a bit heavy topic at the moment for my tired brain. Still really liking it! 😅
