"Pirkko shares a love story that spans over the seas and over the years. A true testimony of what it means to live by faith."
Kimberley Payne, author of Through Trials to Triumph: A Memoir of a Catholic Girl's High School Years. A foreign address scribbled on a slip of paper. Insecure immigrant teenage girl. They've exchanged letters, but why continue writing when first impressions lack spark? He wears suits and she miniskirts. Her search for life's purpose while attempting to follow God's guidance consumes Pirkko's thoughts and letters. And her failures with boys and school. Living for adventure, she finds something unexpected. True love surprises her when they meet in person, but will she surrender and relinquish her own plans? They continue writing, but Antti seems to focus on something else. Pirkko's transformation into adulthood brings the heartfelt connection with a young seminary student into question. Is she good enough? Will their clash of life goals compromise their fragile, emerging romantic love? With vivid storytelling and snippets of original letters, the author captures her past hurts and fears with vulnerability. This unique long-distance relationship across continents delves into topics of faith, hope and love.
