A review by sci_mom
The Year of the Hare by Arto Paasilinna
3.0
Translated novels are not for everyone and not all translated novels are created equal. This one is more enjoyable if you know a little bit about Finnish literature before you start reading. I read this short description http://faculty.washington.edu/akn/1510902.pdf and it definitely helped me to appreciate this book more. I wanted to read it because it is in the UNESCO Collection of Representative Works for Finland and I am trying to read at least 26 books by foreign authors this year. I liked it for what it is.
