What do death, Chinese checkers and
My CFS/ME/FM treatment book
Despite what one would think, Piia's thoughts about death are far from depressing. They're often witty or funny, and sometimes they say a lot about life.
Piia is an outcast, so much that every other character appears to be her opposite in some way. As a nihilistic and very honest person, she often finds herself clashing against her friends' standardized mindset. The same happens even with Piia's closer friend, the 98-year-old Venla, a woman who loves life and butterflies.
The plot is quite good and raises many questions. Piia wants to die, but life still has a few surprises left for her. What interests her so much about death? Will she ever allow herself to feel love? Is she even wrong about wanting to kill herself?
The book is well written, the style is pretty direct and conveys very well the main character's inner world, while portraying the outer world as dry, grey reality with the bare minimum of description. Overall the novel is an enjoyable experience and is easy to relate to - probably much more thank you think.
