NEW MEMOIR FOR SUMMER 2021
50 words for Love in Swedishby Stephen Keeler
Keeler has written a deeply companionable book about the ways we know each other and the ways we can fall in love with places not our own. Deft, detailed, gently humorous and kind; it’s just enough. Lagom, in fact.
A L Kennedy From bageri (bakery) to vitsippa (wood anemone) via Björn Borg, Saab and smörgåsbord, Stephen Keeler delights us with 50 words that capture the essence of his love affair with Sweden.
With a poet’s eye for the telling detail, Stephen Keeler has brought the Sweden of my childhood vividly to life in this charming and idiosyncratic memoir... a joy from beginning to end.

A glorious, tumbling, effervescent tale.
