Aija is a PhD student in Edinburgh who lives and breathes literature. We talked about little nations' literature and language through the perspective of a contemporary Finnish writer, and other issues, such as Black Lives Matters, publishing books and where her love for literature comes from. Some of her recommendations are as follows: Vainola by Päivi Alasalmi, Jean Ryhs: Wide Sarcasso Sea, and the Narrative of Sojourner Truth. Enjoy this episode and as Aija says: read, read, read!
