Helsinki - Author


Born Alexis Stenvall (10 October 1834 – 31 December 1872) [Aleksis Kivi] was a Finnish author who wrote the first significant novel in the Finnish language, Seven Brothers (Finnish title: Seitsemän veljestä). Although Kivi was among the very earliest authors of prose and lyrics in Finnish language, he is still considered one of the greatest of them all.
