Meet the Author: Rosa Liksom

Finnish author Rosa Liksom discusses writing, translation, and her award-winning novel Compartment No. 6.

Two strangers trapped in a train car together travel across the beautiful, desolate Russian landscape. Kirkus called Compartment No. 6 “poetic” and “unsettling,” and the novel won the 2011 Finlandia Prize, Finland’s highest literary honor.
