The Dancing Finn

Finnish silence is one thing, but the silence in Kik Halonen's house is poison. Orphaned as infants, Kik and her sister, Liisa, were taken in by their icy Halonen grandparents and grew up in northern Minnesota without knowing about their parents or even the people who raised them. Eloquently and evocatively written, intricately woven, this is a must-read for Finnish Americans.
