1981: Sonja O. was here, by Anja Kauranen, was a critical and commercial success, a description of student bohemians of the 1970s; an innovative feature was that the writer and the principal character were women who had appropriated the old freedoms of men. The novel, brilliant in its language, was not the starting shot of an illustrious career: in her subsequent work Kauranen has never again reached quite the same level.
