‘The Howling Miller’ is a truly original story and one not to miss. It is set in the post-war years in northern [8]
Finland and traces the life of Gunnar, a decent kind of man, after he moves into the area [4]
to buy and renovate a dilapidated old mill. However, although business prospers, he is prone to [4]
extreme highs and lows, and these unpredictable mood swings unnerve the villagers, who of a night [2]
often hear his howling. Little by little, the villagers turn against him. Outraged by their increasingly [5]
antagonistic actions, he retaliates and after this, things spiral out of control, with him on the run from [3]
the authorities. How will things end? This book mightn’t sound much like a comedy. Read it however, [8]
and you’ll soon begin to appreciate the plots, characterisation and the dark and deadpan style it’s written in. [4]
It really had me howling with laughter! [2]
