58 books105 followers
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.

I enjoyed reading the book from a historical point of view to learn about life in Stockholm was back in the day. With detailed descriptions of sceneries, streets, areas etc of Stockholm, it’s easy for a Stockholmer like myself to imagine the story that’s playing out in the book - streets they are walking in etc.

The book is written in a simple language for someone learning Swedish so it naturally lacks some more detailed description of scenes, objects etc.

Det är spännande att se hur Stockholm växer fram och hur karaktärerna relaterar till de historiska händelser som förekommer, t ex spanska sjukan, Ådalen och WW 2. Denna lättlästa version fungerar men det blir lite korvstoppning då karaktärer och händelser inte fördjupas. Det blir lite ytligt, som ofta är fallet då det gäler lättlästa böcker.

Det var en intressant bok om hur folk levde på början av 1900talet. Jag var glad att jag kunde läsa det på svenska, jag tror den långa versionen skulle bli mer intressant.
