After seeing the movie, read the novel "Border" and it's fantastic.
But didn't understand one word in the last part.
"Reva, Reva, sisimi..."
what is "sisimi... " means? Looked up in Swedish book but the same "Reva, Reva, sisimi..." only...
I'm not a native English speaker.
Anyone can help?
The voice filled her world, the voice was arms embracing, fingers
smelling of earth and moss. The voice was come to me, softness in
her mouth, warm milk.
She was breastfeeding me. She was still breastfeeding me.
What had they given her instead, in hospital? What had they
done to force their food into her mouth?
Reva, Reva, sisimi…
She lowered her head to the needles, pressed her forehead against
the ground, rubbing it back and forth until it hurt.
‘Mommi…Mommi…’
