German rights to AIR OF HOPE by Mooses Mentula sold to Weidle Verlag!

We are thrilled to welcome Mooses Mentula to the agency, whose latest novel AIR OF HOPE has recently sold to Weidle Verlag in Germany! AIR OF HOPE is an intense portrayal of post-war Finland, a nation rebuilding itself, and an unquenchable thirst for life.

“In his novel AIR OF HOPE, Mooses Mentula shows himself to be a clever storyteller who combines credible, vivid descriptions of milieus with exciting stories from the everyday lives of so-called “little people”. He captivates his readers with strong characters that are hard to forget.
By taking us back to the reconstruction years of the 20th century, he shows us the traces that war leaves on people. At the same time, he reminds us that there was a time when people looked to the future with confidence and hope. An important book that should also be made available to German readers!” —Svenja Frederike Bischoff, Weidle Verlag, Germany
