Skraplotter

On the eve of All Saints, with the first snow down, an old woman and her neighbour Elias are drinking coffee in her kitchen when a little red car pulls up on the road above. Out steps a woman, and as her coat falls open they spot a dog collar: the new vicar, they assume, doing the rounds of the elderly. From this remote village the book surveys today's Sweden from the edge, where people, churches and shops have gone, and where the fast changes driven from the cities have yet to reach the slow habits of rural minds.
