<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>[The] Swede is a blueprint for being Swedish: Not too little and not too much (simply lagom).<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>[The] Swede was written with the intent of introducing Sweden and Swedes to English speakers. It's personal and informal, and is inspired by the author's perspective of a country he loves dearly. Smörgåsbord, ombudsman and of course fika are words that were eventually adopted into English; and [The] Swede will introduce you to the rest--from allemansrätt to housewives, hugging, humor and husesyn--what does it mean to be un-Swedish? What about Swedish sin, is it a real thing? Are Swedes boring? Are they serious? Does a person bring bananas to a dinner party? Over 250 brief chapters, usefully organized like a dictionary, will make you a better Swede or at least better understand your Swedish friends, family or colleagues. Richly illustrated with humorous or explanatory drawings.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Not too little and not too much, simply the right amount of information you need prior to a visit to Sweden." - Mark Mitchell</p><br>
