The main aim of Swedish Book Review is to present Swedish literature to the English-speaking world. It carries translated extracts from the works of Swedish writers, a variety of articles and a wide range of reviews. SBR features not only established writers but also new or lesser-known ones and also includes the literature of Swedish-speaking Finland.
SBR’s coverage ranges well beyond popular genre fiction to include literary fiction, non-fiction, poetry, drama and literature for children and young adults. Its seasoned pool of reviewers is a reliable resource for all those seeking information about new books from Sweden.
SBR is editorially independent, but gratefully acknowledges funding from the Swedish Arts Council.
