View all 61 comments. Shelves: favsbookish-gemsfinlandread-in This book was pretty amazing, and different. I'm still brooding over the ending. It's not exactly a happy one, but neither it is sad. It has the same small touch of fantasy as the entire novel. Except for the description of how a mill works, which bored me a little, the rest of the novel is gripping, the kind of story which makes me live inside it, suffering and rejoicing along with the characters. A mysterious, tall man buys the old mill in a northern Finnish village. His past is unknown and hi This book was pretty amazing, and different. His past is unknown and his behavior strange: his mood shifts from depression, when he is grumpy and isolated, to happiness, when he holds parties at the mill, imitating animals and neighbors. Soon, he begins to upset people with his loud howling during the night. He appears to be different and The Howling Miller cannot be understood by his fellow villagers, who begin to think he is insane. It's obvious that Gunnar Huttenen is not entirely normal, but he doesn't harm anyone with his peculiarities. Soon, the events begin to precipitate and people's cruel nature surfaces, deciding the miller's fate. God, how I hated those stupid and petty bastards! Fortunately, there are a few kind-hearted people in that village who will try to help the miller, including a policeman, who shows more The Howling Miller than the priest. I won't say anything more, in order not to spoil the story. But you should read this book, it's worth the time spent in its company. Mar 12, Brian rated it really liked it Shelves:s The Howling Miller, finland. I've never read a book - or perhaps fable is the more appropriate word - quite like this one. The blurb on the back compares our protagonist, Gunnar Huttunen, to Ignatius Reilly, but the comparison is inapt. Huttunen is an eccentric, to be sure, but is not as malicious The Howling Miller nature as Reilly. Huttunen howls hence the title which is surely annoying, but not dangerous. He is a productive member of society, running the mill which had become dilapidated when he bought it. But the main problem seems t I've never read a book - or perhaps fable The Howling Miller the more appropriate word - The Howling Miller like this one. But the main problem seems to be he is not like the others consider the scene where, after the doctor, also an avid hunter, mimics the movements of a bear he once shot, he is astounded to see Huttunen mimicing a crane - an animal that he hadn't even shot! In contrast to Reilly, again, Huttunen is captured and sent to an asylum. Huttunen returns to his village, but is hunted for the remainder of the book, becoming far more dangerous The Howling Miller an outcast than he was as a member of society. Although there were some problems, either in the translation from the French instead of the original Swedish or in the editing, nonetheless the The Howling Miller is engaging. Arto Paasilinna is an author I look forward to reading more from in the future. Jan 16, Andy Weston rated it it was amazing Shelves: finlandtranslated. Huttunen sets up a successful sawmill, but his impersonations of animals and neighbours, and his howling at night make the locals suspicious of him. Jan 22, Naomi rated it really liked it. What a wonderfully strange book. I can honestly say I have never read anything like this. I found myself utterly addicted to this book, enthralled with the main character and wanting to know what happened next. Well worth a read, especially if you are looking for something a little different. Gunnar Huttunen moves to a village in Northern Finland, an outsider bringing with him a tragic past and a small complex of eccentricities, including an irresistible need to sometimes howl for long periods during the night. Before very long, the village leaders turn against him and do everything they can to forcibly expel the odd man. Against his will, Gunnar is cast in the roll of pariah and takes to the wooded hills surrounding the village, intent on recovering, in time, his honor, his mill wor Gunnar Huttunen moves to a village in Northern Finland, an outsider bringing with him a tragic past and a small complex of eccentricities, including an irresistible need to sometimes howl for long periods during the night. Against his will, Gunnar is cast in the roll of pariah and takes to the wooded hills The Howling Miller the village, intent on recovering, in time, his honor, his mill works, and the woman who loves him. His characters, plot scenario, and narrative style draw you in right from the start and sustain interest till the The Howling Miller. Also, there are a number of small plot and thematic loose ends that reinforce this appearance. All the books written by Paasilina that I have read are amazing, but this was my first, that's why I consider it a very special one. The whole story is like a strange fairy tale, where characters are almost real but perhaps, too human to be real. Gunnar Huttumen, the miller, is special because he doesn't care about being different and behaving the way he feels, no matter what his "normal" neighbours think.

He paints his mill the colour that he wants, he doesn't talk if he doesn't think it is necessary and when he is sad The The Howling Miller book is a chant to freedom, wrapped with a hard criticism to a society which refuses to accept anything different just because it is different, without even bothering to look at it.

Withdrawn from Oldham Metro Library Service. Opening: Soon after the wars, a tall fellow The Howling Miller in the canton who said his name was Gunnar Huttunen.

Unlike most of the drifters who came up from the south, he didn't go to the forestry department looking for work digging ditches, but bought the old mill on the Suukoski rapids on the Kemijoki River. This was judged to be a hare-brained scheme, since, having stood idle since the s, the mill had fallen into a state of extreme delapidation. Given that beginning, I think this will suit just fine.
