Even more reviews of fantasy in Swedish

There has to be some kind of Potter-effect going on here.

Today another reviews popped up in DN. This time it is Ursula K Le Guin has her latest, Gifts, given a very positive review. Literary experts in Sweden should start frothing in rage soon, and their deceased predecessors turning wildly in their graves.

What is the world coming to? Should this continue fantasy might even receive the status of literaure over here. Strange days.

This review is even more interesting in light of this debate.

Yup. I've seen it as well.

I take it the reviewer regarded Sir Arthur Conan Doyle as YA and Jules Verne as middle grade.

Oh well :)
