Action:
In the early seventies, Svartvattnet is a waning village in northern Sweden among many others. Then something happens. A double murder far out in a roadless country.
Eighteen years pass before anyone begins to suspect the truth about what happened. And then it becomes just as dangerous again out there in the marshland. The incident has become a dark force with an effect on many people's lives. It is these people that Kerstin Ekman portrays in her novel, their attempts to save memory and context even though they live in the shadow of oblivion that lies over the rural villages and small communities.
But it is equally a novel about a landscape. Man has done badly with it. When the big forestry companies withdraw, it is forever changed by clearings, road networks and gravel pits. What remains are the nameless places in the realm of the starlings, swaying wet tufts and murmuring water under the ground. The water whispers and wails, icy clear or sucking black. In the pale summer night light, events and places seem to float and wander, as elusive and ambiguous as people's memories and actions.
Reviews:
