Anders Roslund’s Mannen som slutade dö / The man who quit dying reviewed in Kapprakt

“This fall, when  it’s time to designate this year’s best Swedish suspense, I believe Mannen som slutade dö [The man who quit dying]  should be high on the list. When Anders Roslund makes his debut as an author of a standalone thriller, he does it amazingly well … On the journey towards multiple solutions we get loads of smart and well-written scenes where perspectives and roles change in a turbulent nightmare … [Mannen som slutade dö] diverges radically from everything [Roslund] has written before. In a way more stripped down, less rooted in a broader societal context and more of an intimate chamber drama rotating around the biggest robbery in Swedish history; at the same time more linguistically refined than ever before. Impressively skilful and captivating, it’s difficult to believe this year will offer any better Swedish suspense than this.”
