We sat down with Swedish author Jon Stenhugg to talk about his new book, and switching between the US and Sweden.
– and taught at the Stockholm School of Education for over thirteen years. Few people, however, know Stenhugg is an expat, and fewer still know that he’s the pen name of John Clewett.
Clewett’s grandfather was a judge in Paradise, but he tells me it continued to be an extremely violent place. “I witnessed three murders by the time I was eleven-years-old. Back then it was like ‘oh, I guess this is what people do’, but looking back, I realise it’s given me a different spin on life and what people are capable of.”
“I didn’t know I was writing ‘Nordic Noir’ until I met Barry Forshaw, who invented the term” Clewett tells me. “Before I met him, I was just writing what I wanted to write. Anyway, my books are different to most ‘Nordic Noir’ thrillers because, although the action takes place primarily in Sweden, my characters often travel abroad. I think you’re right in classing them as thrillers. People die in my books, and there are investigations, but it’s not the basic plot.
