About Jävla karlar by Andrev Walden

At Christmas 1983, a violent quarrel in a house in the woods outside Norrköping brings a family secret to light: a boy named Andrev learns that the man he has known as his father is not his biological father. His mother says his real father lives far away and has hair down to his shoulders. Andrev imagines the revelation as the start of a fantastical adventure, but no spirit arrives to take him away—only new men who are not his father.

Andrev Walden’s novel debut is described as a wild account of growing up amid the remnants of the 1968 movement. It considers mothers, men, and the beginnings and endings of love. Readers interested in Swedish fiction about childhood and family relationships may find it especially appealing.
