The sisterhood of the enchanted forest Sustenance, wisdom, and awakening in Finland's Karelia

Naomi Moriyama

Book - 2021

What would happen if you built one of the world's most advanced societies inside a forest--and strove to make women full partners in power? After living for twenty-five years in New York, Naomi Moriyama moved with her husband and co-author William Doyle and their seven-year-old child to the vast forest of Finland's Karelia, a mysterious region on the Russian border that helped inspire J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle Earth fantasies. She entered a life-altering zone of tranquillity, peace, and beauty, the spiritual heart of the nation ranked as the happiest nation on Earth, with among the world's most empowered women.
