The author writes in Swedish and is particularly known as a chronicler of Helsinki. In his new novel "Das Trugbild" he returns to the year 1938, the eve of the Second World War. Westö illustrates a torn society that is still visible in our times, where the ghost of nationalism is haunting Europe again.
