['Judgment/evaluation :\r\n-\tPositive about author: an artist who knows what she wants to say \r\n\r\n-\tPositive about work\r\no\tfinally yes: almost as good as earlier books by Lagerlöf\r\n-\tNegative about author\r\no\tReason : lack of aesthetic value (when compared to earlier works)\r\n\r\n-\tNegative about work\r\no "on sen sisällystä pidettävä verrattain laihana" (the content must be regarded as thin), there is a too strong religious tendency, the stories are tiresome\t\r\n-\tBUT: if the writer would be someone else, one could not even notice these problems - one is only used to require something more from Lagerlöf\r\n\r\nTaking the author seriously (or not):\r\n-\tReference to [good/bad] reputation already acquired \r\n-\tMention of success\r\n\r\nRecurrent elements of image building (gendered clichés, anecdotes) :\r\n- none\r\n\r\nFinancial aspects, referring to :\r\n-\tnone\r\n\r\n\r\nComparisons to/mentions of other women authors : [provide names, with perhaps short comment]\r\n- not gender spesific - in general better than most writers\r\n\r\nComparisons to/mentions of male authors : [provide names, with perhaps short comment]\r\n\r\n- see above\r\n\r\nComparisons to other countries : [provide names of countries, with perhaps short comment]\r\n- none\r\n\r\nGender-[biased comments : ]\r\n-\tCorresponds (or not) to female norms (too) religious\r\n\r\nConsidering the author’s use of (a minor) language as:\r\n-\tnone\r\n\r\nThis review is very ambivalent. On one hand it dissmisses almost everything in this book, on the other hand it says that it is still a very good book, and probably everyone is going to buy it. The journalist signs as A.S.s.\r\nJW2013']
