Literature as a European Mothertongue: In our series “One is a CROWD”, we introduce you to authors from all over Europe who will be involved in the CROWD omnibus reading tour, taking place from May to July 2016, featuring around 100 authors who will travel through 15 European countries. We asked them three questions based on text production, reception and mediation. In case you have always wanted to know what a literary activist in Siuro looks like, meet Jyrki K. Ihalainen!
