 Estonian Literary Magazine. Book reviews. JOY SPARKS FIRES BEHIND THE SKY by Elin Toona   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
Toona was born in Estonia, as a child escaped to Germany with her mother and grandmother during the Second World War, grew up in England, lives in the USA since 1970, and writes both in Estonian and in English.
At the time Elin Toona was born, her grandfather, who had worked as a school inspector, had been dead for three years.
But Toona has, without a doubt, succeeded in her work, something especially welcome in Estonia, where such biographies of writers are a rarity.

Since returning to bicycle racing shortly after Y2K, I've spent three of the last five summers living in Kutztown, Pennsylvannia, taking advantage of the state's awesome training roads and plentiful racing opportunities.
