Finnish fiction

The list author says:
	"One of the few Finnish authors translated into English. A bit of escapism, with some magical elements but a funny and satisfying read"

The list author says:
	"Pretty much same style as Year of the Hare, with eccentricity and mild mental illness thrown in"

The list author says:
	"Another excellent Paasilinna, sadly in German only"

The list author says:
	"Fictional first hand account of the Finnish Winter War. Hard, brutal and not at all glorifying"

The list author says:
	"Another account of Finland's entanglement in WW2 - this time of the Continuation War. A must read for a Finland fan - the movie of the same title is shown each year on Finnish Independence Day"

The list author says:
	"The great Finnish epic"

The list author says:
	"Waltari - one of Finland's few literary export successes. Brings ancient Egypt up close"

The list author says:
	"One of the funniest books IMHO - the cultural upheaval of an EU co-operation project between Finns and Italians"

The list author says:
	"Same wit as in Canal Grande but with some knowledge of Finland thrown in, and a curious twist to the story"

The list author says:
	"The Raid series of crime fiction - sadly in German only"
