We are very happy to announce that Marisha Rasi-Koskinen’s YA novel THE FALLEN (Pudonneet, WSOY 2022) is nominated for the Finlandia Children’s & Young Adult Literature Prize!
“The novel is captivating in its depiction of the randomness of reality, and how inexorably the lives of the individual young people intertwine and influence each other. ‘The Fallen’ challenges the reader to participate in a merciless game, where the impact of things must be figured out one by one and by combining different perspectives, observations and possibilities. The Fallen is masterfully constructed, and its controlled narration is dazzling.” – Statement of the Finlandia Prize Jury
