She was delighted when she heard her name, Erika
Emil Uuttu wrote the play ‘The Lovely Daughter Erika – Notes on a name’ (2023) based on a local story found in the folk poetry collection of the Finnish Literature Society, and on a number of research publications that discussed the note or otherwise referred to it. The play is a study of questions of ethics and remembering in historical study, in the context of trans history.
