From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Viljo Kajava (September 22, 1909 - February 2, 1998) was a Finnish poet and writer. His first collections of poems were released in 1935. During his 50-year career he published nearly 40 books, most of them poems. Kavaja's "Poems of Tampere 1918" has become a symbol of the pacifistic point of view of the Finnish Civil War.
