The text is based on censored sections from
"Unknown Soldier" (1954),a novel by the Finnish author Väinö Linna. "Unknown Soldier" describes the time when Finland was at war with the Soviet Union (1941-44). It is the most read book in Finland. I have changed the text a bit, to make it ‘fit’ in the woman’s mouth, and to give the impression that she could be speaking of her own life, perhaps of an impending divorce.It is fascinating me that the text was something that could not be published for political reasons not so very long ago. – G. Holmstrom. |
