Brilliant. Read a translation since I don't speak/read/understand Swedish, but the style was amazing - sparse and detailed at the same time. Interesting, filled with theory and humanity, leaving impressions behind for a long time. A story of love and friendship and of answering your calling in a way. Definitely recommended.

A fictional story of the life and death of Christ as told by Mary Magdalene, the woman who probably knew him best. If you're interested in alternative views of Christianity, you'll enjoy this book. And if not, it's a good story nonetheless.

I found the concept amazing but it didn't play out like I expected. The writing feels clunky but I'm not sure if that's because of the author or the translator. I literally fell asleep everytime I tried to read it so the whole process took longer than I would have liked.
