Title: Troll: A Love Story (British title: Not Before Sundown)
Author: Johanna Sinisalo
Publisher: Grove Press
Year: 2003
Country: Finland
284 pages
Troll is an enjoyable fantasy novel in pastiche form. Sinisalo weaves together mythology, invented news reports and research works, and short sections from multiple narrators' perspectives to tell a psychological tale that is definitely homoerotic, possibly bestial, and definitely not for children. In some regards, this could be pleasingly paired with Donohue's The Stolen Child and Clarke's Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell.
