I had missed this one completely, but then it went on to win the Tähtivaeltaja award, so I had to read it. Verdict? Fascinating, but kind of hard to read, thus just three stars. I'm willing to plead stupidity: this book is probably for smarter people than I am, and I probably missed a ton of fascinating metaphors. But at times, the worlds Schulz create were simply amazing, and I don't wonder why this was awarded, especially as the translation is solid.
