– I think my book might be of interest to the biased and unbiased western reader either. I suppose that many issues might seem not real to them, since Siberia has long been thought of as being cold and unhappy in the minds of many foreigners... Where the book "Tomsk – the cradle of my soul" presents everything in the opposite way, in comparison with the first book. Two other books of the trilogy – “My multifaced Leningrad "and " My Siberian soul in Finland " – are also lyrical, full of author's observations, sketches of human’s fates. On the whole, the trilogy is a chronicle not only the author’s life, Galina Punkkinen, but several generations of her loved ones and contemporaries.
