Classic of 70s feminism

This classic novel made Marta Tikkanen's reputation in Scandinavia. Although some of the feminist issues may seem a little dated, her mordant humor has survived the test of time much better than the work of sister writers of this period. The translation is not quite all it could be - for some reason, the Virago press translation dropped some of the local material on Finland Swedish scciety in Helsingfors. Still, this novel is well worth reading.
