Reviews
Stina Katchadourian spoke at FAHA on April 9, 2011. It is a very interesting story of her early childhood in war torn Finland and gives a very personal glimpse of the realities of the war to real people. Book based on her experiences, memories and her parents letters between her father on the battle field and her mother trying to stay away from the war with their children. (Review based on her talk. I haven't yet read the book. SMO
