Roslund & Hellström

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Roslund & Hellström were a Swedish duo of crime fiction writers composed of journalist Anders Roslund (born 1961) and activist and author Börge Hellström (1957–2017). They were full-time writers from 2004 to Hellström's death in 2017.

Beforehand, Roslund had worked for 15 years as a news reporter for Rapport News, Aktuellt, and Kulturnyheterna. Hellström, an ex-convict,[1] was one of the founders of Kriminellas Revansch i Samhället (KRIS), an organisation devoted to rehabilitating former criminals.[2]

The duo made their debut with the crime novel Odjuret (English translation: The Beast) in 2004. Their novels put a particular emphasis on the roles of victim and perpetrator, offering a morally grey portrayal of motive and responsibility.[3]

Their works have been translated into Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Indonesian, Russian, English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, Polish, Lithuanian, Estonian, Romanian, Bulgarian, Slovenian, Croatian, Hungarian, Slovak, Czech, Icelandic, Finnish, Danish, Norwegian, Hebrew, Turkish, Greek, Macedonian, and Catalan.
