Malin vill ut i livet men har för många att ta hand om: mamma som är arbetsskadad och har en lägenhet som svävar bland trädtopparna, och Mårten som är fixerad vid fornlämningar och folkmord och tar henne med till sjösystemen och ler åt sina diagnoser. I väntan på att det riktiga livet ska börja tillbringar Malin sommaren i barndomsstaden tillsammans med Tanya och Madde. Tanya ska bli datalog och har blivit sjukt stor och Madde har en pappa som tycker han är sexig när han kör bil och en mamma som mest sitter på verandan och blåser rök i ansiktet på sin barndom. Sen börjar Malin ligga med Dükler också. Som är betydligt äldre. Och hennes chef. Efter det går allting fort. De leder varandra allt längre neråt. Eller kanske bort nånstans?

We follow our narrator – nameless until the very last page – through the summer she turns twenty-two. The setting is a small town in the west of Sweden, and a sense of ending is hanging over the lake and the high-rises. It’s like the chances of actually getting away from here are slipping fast – both her last friends are planning to leave town the coming autumn, one to study, one to work in London. And yet, she doesn’t seem to be able to muster the energy or self-esteem to follow. Instead she is summer temping at the local super market – constantly battling the propblem that someone is urinating in the apple juice - and starting an affair with her boss, more or less without knowing why, not believing for a second the pathetic promises he gives her. But, to her own horror, sort of settling in. Making do.
This is a chafing book of class and aimless longing and heritage, leaving me gasping for breath. Lindberg has a marvellous eye for detail, using imagery that is both absurd and utterly realistic at the same time. It’s funny. It’s smart, but never to smart. It’s vicious, but never heartless. I know this place, I know these people. This is like where I grew up myself. One of the best reads of the year for me. ( )
