I should not have gone back to the island but did it all the same.After many years away, Andreas returns to his childhood home on a small island off the Norwegian coast. He is there to sort through the belongings of his late foster father in their decaying old house, the Yellow Villa. But he soon finds himself overwhelmed with unexpected memories, and begins to uncover not only the shadowy history of the island, but the mysterious truth about his family's past ...Rich in shimmering echoes from Shakespeare's play, Steve Sem-Sandberg's The Tempest is a hypnotic portrayal of the inherited guilt that seeps through generations, haunting an island overgrown with myths.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Steve Sem-Sandberg

Steve Sem-Sandberg nasceu em Oslo, Suécia, em 1958. Divide o seu tempo entre Viena e Estocolmo. Além de escritor premiado, é crítico literário e tradutor.
Publicado na Suécia em 2009, após ter sido considerado o acontecimento literário da Feira de Frankfurt de 2010, O Imperador das Mentiras tornou-se um sucesso internacional e foi o grande vencedor do Prémio August-Strindberg (o equivalente sueco do prémios Goncourt e Booker).
Partindo de uma escrita sóbria pontuada por puros momentos de poesia, umas vezes vaga de fundo dominando os acontecimentos de 1942, outras, melodia vibrante de emoções, Sem-Sandberg aposta, obviamente, na literatura.
