In Ola Larsmo's award-winning novel, Gustaf and Anna Klar, along with their three children, embark on a journey from Sweden to New York in 1897, carrying a heavy secret and dreams of a fresh start. Their aspirations face immediate challenges, including a devastating fire at Ellis Island and dire living conditions in the city. The family eventually finds refuge in Swede Hollow, a marginalized community of immigrants on the outskirts of St. Paul, Minnesota, where they navigate hardship and resilience in a harsh environment. This richly researched narrative highlights the struggles and determination of a family seeking to carve out a life in a new world.
