From the back cover: "A wounded sailor is found on a Trieste quay - amnesiac, unable to speak and with nothing to identify him except a name tag pointing to Finnish origins. A passing doctor resolves to teach him Finnish to restore his memory and rebuild his identity. Charming and beguiling." Books of the Year in The Financial Times

I liked this book very much. Very impressed by Marani's knowledge of Finnish and Finland's history. Very refreshing view.

Journal Entry 7 by Soozreader at Joensuu, Pohjois-Karjala / Norra Karelen Finland on Friday, September 1, 2017
Interesting, beautiful and sad story. I liked the way it was written and I was impressed that there were only some mistakes with the Finnish words and names. A bit surprising that more tea than coffee was drank in this book...

This wishlist book is on its way to the next reader. Happy reading!
What a fabulous surprise, thanks very much!
I agree, this was quite an interesting read. Unlike sannuli and Soozreader though, I was quite annoyed with the inaccuracies (I'm pretty sure there's no mention of Koskenkorva in Kalevala) and the mistakes in the Finnish words. It shouldn't be too much effort for the writer or the editor to check details like these.

Next off to koivula5 as a wishlist tag. Enjoy!

Oikeen Akseli Gallen-Kallelan maalaus kantena. Erityisesti yhdessä käännekohdassa (kun päähenkilö näki "erään" sotalaivan) tuntui tunteissa, mutta kaikenkaikkiaan odotin enemmän.
Helmet: esim. 36 (kirjassa ollaan yksin)
Popsugar: esim. 39 (a book revolving around a puzzle; siinä mielessä, että henkilöllisyys on arvoitus)
Pohjoinen: 6 (valitsin kannen perusteella; Akseli Gallen-Kallelan Keitele)
