Will You Care If I Die? is a powerful memoir about social class, race, friendship and unexpected love, and a blazingly topical exploration of social polarization and the rise of the far right.

In Sweden, where children murder children and where gun violence is the worst in Europe, Nicolas Lunabba’s job as a social organizer with Malmö’s underclass requires firm boundaries and emotional detachment. But all that changes when he meets Elijah – an unruly teenage boy of mixed heritage whose perilous future reminds Nicolas of his own troubled and violent past.

Allowing Elijah into his home and then into his heart, Nicolas crosses one of his own red lines. With the odds stacked against them, and completely unprepared for the journey he and Elijah now set off on together, can Nicolas keep Elijah safe from harm and steer him towards a better future? Written as a letter to Elijah, Will You Care If I Die? tells Nicolas and Elijah’s story – and asks us to reimagine what it means to care for one another in an uncaring world.

The Mountain King

This atmospheric and sinister mystery, tinged with Scandinavian folklore, follows an overachieving female inspector investigating the darkest sides of humanity.

Criminal inspector Leonore Asker seems to have the leading position at Malmö’s Major Crime Division within reach. But things go awry when, in the middle of a high-profile kidnapping case, management relegates her to the so-called Department of Lost Souls—the unit for odd, cold cases banished to the basement of the police station.

Despite the humiliation, Asker is drawn into one of the more peculiar cases. Someone is placing small ominous figures in town and one of them seems to represent the missing woman from the kidnapping case. As Asker’s investigation takes her to abandoned buildings, she reaches out to a local architecture expert and together they explore the sinister recesses of the city and discover that an unusual kind of evil lurks in the shadows.

Albert Bonnier, his life and times

The story of Sweden’s first modern publisher.

A fascinating biography of the founder of the Bonnier publishing house from his arrival in Sweden, following in the footsteps of his brother Adolf, in 1835 to his death in 1900. Besides an in-depth look at nineteenth-century literary Sweden (Albert Bonnier knew everyone and Strindberg does not come off well), the book also addresses the historical context, the constraints faced by Jewish immigrants to Sweden in the early 1800s, changes in the rules on settlement and antisemitism as the century progressed. The issues it raises on immigration, assimilation and freedom of speech remain relevant today.

Improve your environment to improve your life!

Are you tired of fighting an uphill battle and constantly having to rely on your own willpower, motivation and self-discipline? Would you like to learn a smarter, simpler way to get the life you’ve always dreamed of – both at home and at work?

Gunnel Ryner overturns the traditional view of self-development and success, in which it’s all about you, and instead shows how you can create an environment – with the right people, things, places, conditions and ideas – that simply draws you in the direction you want to go.

With a light-hearted blend of science, humour and relevant examples, she demonstrates the positive aspects of laziness and shows how the right environment is more important than willpower. The book also provides you with a step-by-step method that makes it easy and fun to get where you want, both in your own life and together with your colleagues at work.
