Finnish word love

The year is 1939 and storm clouds are gathering over Europe. The land of the Finns is one of the first to be engulfed by ominous darkness. The feared " Russian Bear" sees the small Nordic nation as easy prey, but he is soon to be proven wrong. Difficult times fill history textbooks with painful dates and faceless numbers, but here and there – deep and hidden – they also capture something fragile, sadly cheerful, human. A story with the scent of humanity. Like ours. The story of a young couple on the verge of childhood and adulthood, a story set against the backdrop of a tragedy that they refuse to tell. On the contrary, he wants to laugh, he wants to caress. Will you accept the invitation of young Jaakko and his lovely Seija to a breezy winter fairy tale? The book won numerous readers in printed editions not only with its kind humor, but also with its poetics and, last but not least, the power of the story itself.
