Description
The longest trunk in Finland belongs to elephant Emilka, who, since the European Union banned the performance of wild animals in circuses, has become an unwanted refugee in her own country. Her beautiful trainer Lucia Lucander, also known as Sanna Tarkiainen, doesn't know what to do with Emilka. She initially seeks a solution in the endless Siberian plains, but soon realizes that she won't find anything good in Russia. However, she will at home in Finland. During a cheerful journey through the summer Finnish landscape, she meets many people - mostly men - willing to help, because a proper Finnish man can handle even an elephant that officially doesn't exist. The Longest Trunk in Finland is ideal light reading not only for summer vacations but also touches on more serious themes, such as the subtle disappearance of human freedom under the pressure of bureaucratic tyranny.
