Author Conversation
Kaj Korkea-Aho and Catariina Salo are both currently releasing books about parenthood.
Now you get to meet both of them in a personal conversation about their latest books. Kaj Korkea-Aho’s autobiographical text about how three parents had a child is touching, painful, and humorous, and can also be used as a sort of handbook for others in the same life situation.
Catariina Salo’s debut is both a tale of fury, a cry for help as well as a story of love, desire, and jealousy. It’s about having a mother and being a mother, losing one’s way, and hopefully finding it back.
