Comments

”Minna Lindgren shows with a great sense of humour and a lot of knowledge that it might not be the best time of your life when you are old, but it does not mean the end either.” –Helga Frese-Resch, Kiepenheuer & Witsch on THE ANGRY WIDOW

“The strongest message of FAR FAR LOVE is the dialogue between the generations.” – Anun ihmeelliset matkat blog

Minna Lindgren (b. 1963) is a freelance journalist and columnist, winner of the Bonnier Journalism Prize in 2009. She is best known for the SUNSET GROVE Trilogy, which has been sold to 11 territories, and the final part THE END OF SUNSET GROW was nominated for the International Dublin Literature Award in 2019. Lindgren’s books have been critical and commercial successes, in Finland and internationally.

Summary

Kauko Koskinen is a man of order: receipts are organized, 60 years of calendars are safely stored, and every day has certain rhythms and routines. But when he gets banned from the dementia care home where his wife resides, his life turns upside down. Memories of his youth bring a person from the past back to his mind: where is his first love now? Kauko starts to track down a woman he knew sixty years ago, but is he chasing only a memory or a dream?
