Volter Kilpi (born 1874 December 12) was a Finno‐Swedish essayist/novelist. A pioneer of Finnish modernist literature. Among his most famous work, Alastalon salissa appeared in two volumes in 1933, and gained critical acclaim, but it never became a bestseller. Kilpiʼs stream of consciousness novel was among first of its kind in Finnish language and he compared it himself to such landmarks of European modernism as James Joyceʼs Ulysses (1922) and Marcel Proustʼs Remembrance of Things Past (1913-27).
