Highly enjoyable, witty and scatalogical. The sparse, dry style suits the story and heightens the absurdities of the fish soup a la hare droppings, naked helicopter pilots and a bear hunt across Finland and the Soviet Union. A real pleasure.

Thank you so much for this book! I usually prefer reading books in their original language(if I can read that language, that is) but as I've already read this one in its original language (which happens to be my mother tongue) I'm very curious about how the translation is going to be...:)

This was an amusing story, with the main character getting into some very strange situations. By the time the war games came about and the evacuation it almost seemed reasonable, due to being lead by the author to accept the strange. The summary of activities when the Vatanen was in Russia highlighted this further.
I found the last part of the book fragmented, and decided that Vatanen was actually extremely self centred.
Recommended read.
