Dear Lisa, I hope you had wonderful Christmas! My comment has been lost somewhere again, so I'll try to remember what I wrote when I saw your post. I read Bandi's stories some months ago, and they really resonated with me as someone who was born in then-Soviet Latvia. Thank you for this recommendation and for the very appealing-sounding "Another Country" which I've now bought and hope to read soon. Happy new Year!
How wonderful to hear from you, Inga! I'm glad your comment got through this time, and to hear that you read Bandi's stories (during the reading I was grateful for having been born in Iceland!). I do hope 'Another Country' won't disappoint (I'm currently reading 'Giovanni's Room' which many consider his best novel).
