Jäniksen vuosi

Arto Paasilinna

3.47 AVERAGE


Rozczarowany swoim dotychczasowym życiem dziennikarz i przygarnięty przez niego zajączek, ruszają w podróż po Finlandii. Wydawać się może, że nic ciekawego nie może się w takiej podróży przytrafić, a jednak. Jak nie utarczka z niedźwiedziem, to pożar lasu. Jak nie pijani turyści, to manewry wojskowe. A na koniec... a to już przeczytacie sami.

Il protagonista Vatanen, insoddisfatto da una quotidianità paralizzata, mollerà tutto e passerà un anno in giro per la Finlandia vivendo assurde avventure in compagnia di una lepre selvatica.
Consiglio Paasilinna a chi apprezza Alan Bennett perchè a mio parere i due autori hanno un senso dell'ironia e una comicità simile.

A fun, unusual and unique book. It’s hard to describe, but it’s a brilliant read and one every one should read! 

This book goes to the top of my all time Finnish favorites. I rarely read anything in my own native language but naturally a book from a Finnish author must be read in Finnish. The Year of the Hare is a touching description of a Finnish man who suddenly decides to change his life and moves from one place to another with a small, wild rabbit. Highly recommended.
