Thanks BAN. What about Mikael Niemi, or is he more like a kind of Nick Hornby type figure?

I put this on the other thread but I'm reading The Conqueror, the second in Jan Kjaerstad's trilogy about modern Norway and it's immensely good.

GF loves Niemi's Popular Music book, but says it probably doesn't translate as it has a lot of Mäenkieli in it. I can testify that it is a bitch to try and read in Finnish if you're not family with the dialect, but I haven't tried the English version. I should.
