He wants to make things right and to get close to his parents and brother, so he returns to his hometown after being away for thirteen years. But neither his family nor the inhabitants of the small community let him forget what role he was assigned. When his father suddenly dies and the family firm needs to be saved, Jonny gets involved in his brother’s dirty business. He is suffering from painful memories of the tragedy he was once accused of, the things he was exposed to as a child. Jonny relapses into his former addiction, and one morning he wakes up bloody and confused. What did he do? And who is Nino, the ONE LAST WINTER quiet boy who tries to approach him? When the well known and 272 PAGES popular profile Ingvar Hagman goes missing and later is found brutally murdered, suspicion falls on Jonny. One Last Winter is a story about guilt and atonement. About a boy who died and about a boy who survived. No one will let him forget about his past, least of all himself. ‘‘Håkan Norebäck’s debut novel is irresistible. When me and my colleagues read the manuscript for the first time, we got extremely touched by the story about Jonny. One Last Winter is an incredibly powerful story about returning to what you thought was home, about alienation, racism, crime and family secrets in a wintery small town in Sweden. But most importantly it is a story about atonement.” ÅSA LINDSTRÖM, SENIOR EDITOR AT FORUM 9 Jenny Jägerfeld is a psychologist and award winning author, Mats Strandberg is a bestselling horror and fantasy author. For years, they tried to find an idea to collaborate on, and now they found the per- fect one. They took some of the most iconic monsters in literature and put them in present day therapy.

At her reception a collec- tion of documents are found: a work journal, letters, research material and transcriptions of the therapy sessions she has conducted within the framework of a book project. In the notes we can follow the conversations with an identity- disordered doctor, a lesbian psychopath vampire, a manic scientist’s dreaded offspring and a narcissistic dandy. They turn out to be some of the most iconic monsters of Gothic horror literature - Dr. Jekyll, Carmilla, Frankenstein’s monster and Dorian Gray - and they struggle with timeless dilem- mas that we can all recognize. MONSTERS IN THERAPY 289 PAGES ‘‘It is an important political act by Jägerfeld and Strandberg that they, in an intelligent pop culture way, dig deeper into the literary monsters. If there is anything we need, to be able to face both the stranger outside and within, it is this insight; monsters are human, and humans are monsters.” DAGENS NYHETER, SWEDEN ”Jägerfeld and Strandberg have combined literature and psychology in an innovative way and created a fertilized art form, a fascinating genre hybrid, or if you will; their very own Frankensteinian monster.” PSYKOLOGTIDNINGEN, SWEDEN Jenny and Mats’s own words on the book ”The idea for this book came to us when we had just seen the premiere of a theatre adaptation of FRANKENSTEIN. We started talking about how the classic horror story is actually a family drama. We said, jokingly, that it could all have ended so differently if only Victor, Elizabeth and the Monster had gone to family therapy. And then we looked at each other, and we just knew.” 11 ”A thorough, sensible, and beautifully reasoned analysis of one of the most pressing issues of our time.” STEVEN PINKER, JOHNSTONE PROFESSOR OF PSYCHOLOGY, HARVARD UNIVERSITY, AND THE AUTHOR OF ENLIGHTENMENT NOW ”Knowledge stands at the center of human existence, it is what sets us apart from the other animals and is what makes human cooperation and progress possible. When knowledge is under threat we are all under threat. Philosophy gives us the tools we need to understand the challenges and meet the enemies of knowledge, and I felt that as a philosopher it was time to step up to the plate.” Åsa Wikforss, on writing the book alternative Facts – On Knowledge and Its Enemies We live in the era of ‘post truth’ and as the world is being flooded with fake news, conspiracy theories and science denial we look for a solution. Written in an accessible way, the book provides the basic philosophical framework required to understand
