Well, as long as its friendly stalking I'm all for it. ;)

you have no idea how grateful I am that you posted it, because I have been trying to find it for years.

Hee. You're welcome. I'm just glad to meet a fellow Lindgren lover. (also love the Emil icon.) I'm constantly amazed by how her books continue to affect me, even when I'm (reasonably) grown-up and reading them for the unknown time. Her style is really so simple and at times almost stoic, and yet she manages to say and convey so much.

I find Ronja to be one of the better movie adaptions. As much as I love "Brothers Lionheart" the book, I'm not too crazy about the series. It's just too seventies and Jonathan has this really horrid haircut.

As for the music - I used to have a lot more of it (including "Rid over Skog" and most of the instrumentals), but then my old computer crashed and I lost it. At one point I had to stop myself from calling the repair shop and go: "But my Ronja-music is on there! It has taken me months to track it down! You must save the Ronja music!"

I'm rambling on a bit here (and not too concerned with the rules of English grammar), but my point was: thank you!

Rambling is always good, and I've been known to skip some rules of English Grammar myself - and you're very welcome.

ps. thanks to [livejournal.com profile] applegnat I'm currently reading your Iliad football fic. It is very good, and I'll try to be more coherent later.
