Fiction

An old soldier carves a croft out of the Finnish forest and calls it home, but try as he might to tame the land, its magic endures. For centuries his descendants will work the farm, their fates entangled with the rhythms of the ancient wilderness, where mysterious shapes flit between the trees and danger lurks in the treacherous fen...Like dragonflies darting over the marsh, their lives glimmer briefly and then are gone. But through war, famine and heartbreak, what endures is the wild, and the certainty that wherever we put down roots, the land will grow roots in us too.
