A five-part story about the Swedish worker's movement back when it was good (Rebellerna by Fredrik Ström). I'm looking forward to reading it. My fiction reading list right now:

1. Maken (The Husband) by Gun-Britt Sandström
2. Eyvind Jonson's autobiographical series.
3. The Emigrants series by Vilhelm Moberg.
4. Rebellerna (The Rebels).
5. Probably Fogelström's five-part suite about working-class people in Stockholm during the late 19th and early 20th century.

Oriana Fallaci is my new litfu. Thank you user.

Glad I could be of assistance.
