The Second Book of Hope

By Tommi Musturi. Published by Bries. 

Softcover, 48 pages, Colour, 2007. 

The saga of the Finnish Everyman continues. Whereas the first episode of the book seems to focus on a grownup man contemplating about his youth, this same man now lives the life of a young boy, a boy whose perfect day consists of watching the sunrise from the roof, saving a bumblebee from freezing, eating meatballs with pancakes. His head however is more than once occupied with darker thoughts about life.
