Johanna Valkama
Johanna Valkama is a Finnish author writing historical novels from the Nordic Viking Age and Renaissance era.
___
Valkama kirjoittaa Pohjolan viikinkiaikaan ja renessanssiin sijoittuvia historiallisia romaaneja, joita värittävät taianomainen pohjoisen luonnon kuvaus, vanhojen kaupunkien tunnelma sekä suomalainen ja skandinaavinen mytologia. Yritetteliäiden naisten ja perheiden selviytymistarinat ovat lähellä kirjailijan sydäntä.

Iida Turpeinen
Iida Turpeinen is a Helsinki-based literary scholar currently writing a dissertation on the intersection of the natural sciences and literature. As an author, she is intrigued by the literary potentials of scientific research and by the offbeat anecdotes and meanderings from the history of science. Her debut novel, Beasts of the Sea (2023) was praised immediately upon its release as a world-class work, one that brings together a lost world and living literature: for it, she won the Helsingin Sanomat Literature Prize, the Thank You For the Book Prize, and was nominated for the Finlandia Prize and the Torch-bearer Prize in Finland and the Premio Strega Europeo in Italy, among others.
