About the author

Per Anders Fogelström was among the leading figures in modern Swedish literature. He spent his whole life in Stockholm, and the most famous of his many works is a series of novels set in the city he dearly loved.

Ingmar Bergman's taboo-breaking 1953 film Summer with Monika is based on Fogelström's novel of the same name, published in 1951.

The author of more than 40 books in total, Fogelström also served as director of the Swedish Peace and Arbitration Society from 1963 to 1977. He received an honorary doctorate from Stockholm University in 1976. On the day he died, June 23, 1998, a bust of Fogelström was unveiled in Stockholm City Hall.

En trivsam bok där man får följa ett gäng under deras uppväxt i Stockholm. I denna bok är de i 20 årsåldern och på väg att forma sina liv.

Fogelström can do no wrong in my eyes!

Något bättre än den föregående boken.

Betyg: 3 och en halv stjärna.

[Keeloca · Rating 2 out of 5]

A sore disappointment, considering this is one of my favourite authors. But most of the characters are both boring and unlikeable, the prose is annoyingly repetitive, the long descriptions of various plays drive me nuts. Also, SO bored with teenage boys thinking about sex.
