This question contains spoilers…
(view spoiler)[In Dreams of Joy, the scene where Joy's baby was almost eaten really had my heart racing. The concept of swap child eat food still haunts me to this day. What do you still think about in terms of things you have written? (hide spoiler)]

Hi, Christy,
I'm sorry it's taken me so long to write back. I've been finishing up my new novel and have been ignoring the real world. I turned it in last week and now I'm slowly catching up.
Swap Child Make Food was such a shocking discovery. It's hard to imagine he desperation that people need to have reached to come to that as a possible solution. It haunts me too! A couple of years ago, I met a man who'd witnessed it. He most certainly was haunted by it.
I'm not sure I understand your question though.

Months ago I asked about historic novels about Finland and you said you didn't know any, but asked for recommendations. I have now read three: The Burnt Out Town of Miracles (Jacobson,) New Finnish Grammar (Marani,) and The Unknown Soldier (Linna.) Only the last was written by a Finn and is presumably realistic. But the other two, however unlikely, did have a good sense of time and place. Have you found any?
