Given this morning’s news of the invasion of Ukraine by Russia, this rough frame from my current work in progress – a comic strip mystery memoir – sadly seems very a propos. It illustrates an extract from a ten year correspondence to and from Sweden, and refers to the 1940 invasion of Estonia by Russia, which was followed by deportations. It’s only part of my story, so you’ll have to wait to find out more until after I’ve finished the book, hopefully before World War Three. More shocking news about the Russian invasion today (25th February), although there’s misinformation too. Respect to those brave enough to fight, and those Russians brave enough to protest against war.
