Approx.; starting at Ilmarinen's tale, next -- the metal bride.

80p later: leaving Lemminkäinen, Tiera, & their cares-turned-into-horses. For some weird reason, now looking forward to Kullervo (starting w/ the next rune/canto); even though some time ago, I rather "dreaded" that bleak stand-alone(-ish) side-plot of the epic. Going 2 pause/put Kalevala away (mustn't neglect other readings) 4 a while, though -- & I wonder how I'll enjoy walking w/ Kullervo whenever I get back 2 it.

Finished (23.06.02): Canto/Rune #17. Aiming to see documentary on Akseli Gallen-Kallala; and re-view "Jade Soturi". (Perhaps also look / listen into Sibelius' related work?)
