This novel is set in 18th Century Sweden; in a time of potential regime change and this gives it a strange significance in March 2011, when regimes in North Africa and Asia are changing or being challenged. The novel show the chaos on the streets, but follows one man and his personal struggle. The novel is dark, cold and moving, but told in a ponderous style. It is told at a human scale, although dealing with nationwide events.
