Everything I don't remember

A certain writer tries to recreate the last day of the life of Samuel, a young man who suddenly died (committed suicide?) in a car accident. In the stories of friends, his beloved girlfriend, relatives and neighbors, different facets of his personality emerge: a loving grandson, an unwilling bureaucrat, a loyal friend, a ridiculous poser, a man in love, ready to do anything for his girlfriend... What remains of all our fleeting memories? And what lies behind what we don't remember? This is a novel about love and friendship, betrayal and violence, grief from the loss of a loved one and loneliness, about the transience of time and the properties of our memory. It is published in Russian for the first time. "Jonas Hassen Kemiri has created the most quoted text in Sweden in recent times. It is believed that his article - an open letter to the Minister of Justice Beatrice Ask about the law, according to which the police, in order to combat the influx of illegal immigrants into the country, could check the documents of everyone, and especially, of course, people of non-local appearance - has been seen and read by approximately every user of Swedish Twitter. But this letter is read, of course, also because Kemiri is the most important Swedish non-Buckman today, the author of really complex psychological prose, who has collected all of Sweden's Natsbests and Big Books." - reviewed by Anastasia Zavozova in Esquire - 10 New Books for Summer You Can't Miss.
