Fantasy

More about the book

In shadowy Stockholm bars and apartments, a charismatic artist tracks down the cast and producers of a failed fantasy film. She seduces the “Sorrowful Prince,„ lets the tech-savvy “Dwarf” bore her on the subject of linguistics, and muses on the “Witch Master's" grisly fate. Her casually acerbic account of her interviews rambles over the tropes of genre literature and the problems of modern society: greed, narcissism, corruption. Fantasy is a sexy, troubling glimpse into the vacuum created when a fantasy collapses.
