Sofi Oksanen

One of the most awarded Scandinavian authors. The books by the 46-years-old Finnish-Estonian writer, librettist and playwright have been translated into 46 languages and sold two million copies. Hailed as a literary phenomenon by The Times after the release of her ground-breaking novel Puhdistus (The Purge) she has been proving time and time again that she is an outstanding doyenne of poignant dramas that combine history and contemporary matters. Dog Park is her sixth novel to be published internationally.
