Anne of Windy Poplars

Re-read Autumn 2020This book was translated into Finnish only 2002. So, when I was young and read them first time, I didn't know this book even existed.

I wish the person who was the model to that read the book and understood, and was ashamed. But I don't think she did. (Or they. There probably were several people like that in her life.)This is in my mind a perfect book to read in Autumn.
