Astrid Lindgren is dead

[Berandor]

poor little Michel from Loenneberga is without mother now?

Sad.

 

[Left-handed Hummingbird]

This is sad. But, afterall, she was 94 and her wonderful stories will live on forever.

But it is a great injustice that she was never given the Nobel Prize for her litterature.

(Oh. And that's "Emil", Berandor... at least in Scandinavia)

 

[Darkness]

Geez we're losing all the greats now are we?

I always loved Pippi too. I never sought out Astrid's other works though, maybe now would be a good time for this.

Very sad news.

What he said, mostly.

 

[Ammianus]

This is sad news. I'm going to have to go home and re-read Brothers Lionheart now. It was among my favourite books when I was growing up.

 

[Mark]

Sad, indeed...
