Booklist: Swede Hollow

Review of Swede Hollow by Ola Larsmo from Booklist

Swede Hollow (Ola Larsmo)

Larsmo's (Deceit, 2012) sobering, realistic portrayal of Swedish immigration to America pulls readers into a richly detailed world peopled with unforgettable characters. Extensively researched and beautifully translated, Larsmo's novel is the epic story of a family and a community struggling to survive and an intimate look at the complexities of immigration.
